Calendar_Invite_Teams.png
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/98.0.4758.88 Safari/537.36
Steps to reproduce:
Send a calendar event invitation from something that generates an HTML message along with the invitation. I've observed this with MS Teams and Google Calendar, both of which send messages with text/plain, text/html, and text/calendar parts.
This is running Thunderbird 91.5.0, on Linux Mint.
Actual results:
The message window displays the HTML part of the message, but it does not display the event details. It's worse with Teams, because the HTML message itself does not include the event time.
If I send a message from Thunderbird's interface, then it does show the event details. In that case, the message contains a text/plain part, but does not contain a text/html part.
Expected results:
There should be a way to display the event details from the text/calendar or application/ics part of the message in addition to the text/html or text/plain part.

Attaching a screenshot for an invite sent directly from Thunderbird's calendar interface.
In this case, the message contains a text/plain and text/calendar part, but not a text/html. Thunderbird displays both the message text and the event details.

91.6.1 isn't listed for download, but 91.6.0 shows the same problem.
I just tried version 98.0b1, though, and it's fixed there. It shows the event details, followed by the HTML part.

Also, if I tell it to view the message as plain text, then it shows me the event details just like it would if there wasn't an HTML part. So, I can use that as a workaround in the meantime.
