    If email provides text/plain and text/html (which is often
    true of some mail agents), then it seems that once you have
    specified "autoview text/html" the html becomes the preferred
    attachment to look at.

    see section 5.5. :--  MIME Multipart/Alternative in help file
    `manual.txt' on "alternative_order".  I just used the example
    as given there  viz:-
    alternative_order 
        text/enriched text/plain text/html application/postscript image
    And so text/plain is selected ahead of text/html... 

Cheers,
Gerry.
