The following email is MIME formatted with content-type text and rfc822
containing html. Displaying without "inline attachment" shows the email in
correct background colour (white in my case). Displaying with "inline
attachment" uses the html background colour (blue) for all the message,
including the original text. This is incorrect, only the attachment should be
displayed blue.

Attachment: Another test case.

Comment 2

[:aceman]

I can confirm this on Win98. The attached message shows a similar (even worse)
problem. The attachment in the message is html and it contains style definitions
for the DIV tag. This seems to affect (it completely hoses it) the display of
the whole message - plain text body and all attachments shown inline.

Simply, the body and attachments don't have a separate render space so that
their CSS definitions would not affect each other.
