Hi Gene,

Sending format preferences should have no effect on display, I agree, and I 
don't think they do.

I'm not sure if you have actually tried setting

View > Message Body As > Original HTML

as when I suggested it, you replied that 

"... there is NO html content in the messages, not even a mimetype boundary for 
it."

It works for me, and I presume others who are able to see the HTML version 
immediately, have it set to HTML.

I didn't understand at first that 

View > Message Body As ...

is a global, persistent setting.

If you still don't see the HTML version after doing that, please would you 
confirm which version of Thunderbird you are using?

Thanks,
Gareth
