I will experiment with these solutions, thanks!

I have to say I am kind of surprised that people do not seem to
encounter this issue and I am thus wondering what their workflow is.

One possibility would be that org-mode sets up a hook to expand all the
subtrees prior to running the spellcheck and then restores the
previous state once spell checking is done. Would this seem reasonable?
And if so, would it seeem a doable thing?

Thanks,

Shérab.

Dear Tim, John and Colin,

You are right Tim, for Gnus, the solution to my problem was here :

https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/MimeTypesWithGnus

and here:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnus-english/2016-04/msg2.html

But I just realize that Gnus gives the choice to open "internally", or
"externally"... :S

Best wishes and many thanks for your very kind help,

Jo.
