Comment (by kevin8t8):
Mutt will show attachments outside of the multipart/alternative by
default.
I'm guessing you may be talking about clients which send something like
this:
{{{
- [multipart/alternative]
- [text/plain]
- [multipart/related]
- [text/html]
- [image/png]
- ... other attachments "embedded" in the HTML
}}}
Since the text/plain and multipart/related are supposed to be equivalent,
Mutt by default will show the text/plain and will end up hiding the
attachments that are bundled together in the multipart/related.
If you often receive emails like this, I would suggest adding
multipart/related to the front of your alternative_order:
{{{
alternative_order multipart/related text/plain
}}}
If you are talking about something else, please reply and provide further
details.
