Steps to reproduce:

An umpteenth PGP bug to be added to the semi‐functional PGP bug heap since Enigmail has been kicked out without a good solution.

I sent an encrypted email from Thunderbird.
My recipient uses the Gmail web interface. He replied and encrypted his email with Mailvelope.
When I open this reply in Tb, I get a long list of the same warning with the same button: see screenshot.

To add insult to injury, old or new Android email software (namely R2Mmail2 or FairMail) have no problem dealing with this email format, unlike TB.

Expected results:

I reckon we should see the decrypted email.
In the worst case, just a single warning and one Decipher button which allows us to look further.

Since the original email was squished at the bottom, I provide a screen shot of the bottom of the email as shown by TB.

IIRC there was another report about this.

Which one? If none, can you assign it to a developer to be mended?
