Hi *,
from time to time I receive emails where the preview pane shows "there
are no message parts that can be displayed directly" (or similar, my
locale in non-english) and the details pane above shows no message
parts.
The emails do have an HTML part in addition to the plain text part,
which is shown when I select "more functions"->"all parts": The
details pane then displays a tree with the root member "Alternative"
with two sub-elements (plain text icon and HTML icon).
The message source shows both parts, the plain text part is empty.
As I have selected to display plain text rather than HTML, showing the
"empty" message part is ok - but shouldn't there be a button to
display the alternative part (I see that with other mixed messages)?
My crystal ball shows a blurry image of code that detects the empty
plain text body and then stops processing with the "there are no parts
that can be displayed directly" message, instead of continuing to
where the alternative part is detected and producing the button to
trigger its display.
The same problem surfaces when I double-click the message to display
it in a separate window.
Should I open a bug for this? Or is this behavior wanted by design?
Regards,
Jens
PS: The probably relevant part of the message body looks like this:
