Steps to reproduce:

Received an email from the JIRA bug tracker which is specifically set-up for certain projects to encrypt ticket changes as an .html.asc attachment.

Actual results:

The email was correctly rendered and indicated "Please see attachment." which contained an html.asc file encrypted with the user private's key.

Expected results:

It should be possible to render the attached file inline into the email message which would avoid saving the file and opening it with an external editor for instance.

I can attach an example if you would like though it may contain some security sensitive information.

I wonder if it shows them if you set text attachments to show inline. (Set mail.inline_attachments.text true)

With thunderbird 68 and 78 it does show the attachment but not decrypted, you get the plain text:

-----BEGIN PGP MESSAGE-----
Version: GnuPG v2
....
-----END PGP MESSAGE-----
