When you delete the attachment from a mail that was sent in dual format
(meaning, in text/plain and text/html), the message text disappears. However,
the message text is still present in the Message Source.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place the testcase mail folder in your profile, and do any possible necessary
steps to make it show in your mail.
2. Open the mail with the attachment present.
3. Delete the attachment through the context menu.
Actual Results:  
The attachment was deleted, and the message text disappeared.

Expected Results:  
The attachment was deleted, but the message text remained.

mail showing the problem. One before, one after.

ok, I see it now with trunk 2005060603.  save-as-draft doesn't actually save in
dual format.

Benoit: you marked this as a regression?  Did it used to work?

I have a dup of this, and I have a fix - I just need to make sure the fix
doesn't break anything that wasn't already broken.

I do remember being able to delete attachments from HTML mails without problems,
yes.
