I agree the mail is broken, and the source should be fixed.
As a temp solution, you can edit the mail and change the
content type header. It should work. Do you know where the mail
is stored on the filesystem ( /var/spool/mail/<uid> or ~/.mozilla)?
If it's only that one newsletter, filtering it
to a seperate folder would make the edits easier.
How often do you get mails like that? 1 or 2 per
week shouldn't be a problem to edit until they fix
the problem.
