#416: WebJournal: update alert/newsletter to workaround bug in Exchange 2010

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
The current newsletter sent via WebJournal is a multipart message
including a text and an HTML version. The structure is the following one:
{{{
multipart/related
-- multipart/alternative
---- text/plain
---- text/html
}}}
This structure is not understood correctly by Exchange 2010 mail server,
resulting intermittently in truncated messages in some mail clients (Apple
Mail). A bug fix for Exchange 2010 is apparently expected at the end of
2010. A workaround could be to use the following structure:
{{{
multipart/alternative
-- text/plain
-- text/html
}}}
Consequences of moving to the above structure should be checked
(compatibility with other clients, etc.), and weighted against the fact
that the Exchange 2010 bug should soon be fixed (assuming that these
servers are regularly updated by admins).
