This is incredibly helpful!
On my office computer, I had specified "variable width" for displaying
plain text messages; that's why they showed up in Charter BT instead
of Courier New.
I had completely forgotten about CTRL-U! Next time messages show up
strange, I'll able to figure out how they were sent.
And now that I know about CTRL-0, I'll always know whether the current
zoom level is the default, or the result of my recent efforts.
My only regret is that this information is buried in a string on
another subject, where it may be hard for others to find....
Figured out how to control the display of multipart messages. With the
message open or displayed in the preview pane, do View | Message Body
As. You can choose from Original HTML, Simple HTML, Plain Text, and All
Body Parts.
In the case of a multipart message, if you choose "All Body Parts,"
you'll see the plain text version AND the HTML version, one before the
other. The order of presentation is presumably the same as the order in
the original message.
And of course if you reply with multiple parts showing, the quoted
message will include multiple copies. If you reply in plain text, you
get multiple plain-text copies; if you reply as HTML, you get a copy
formatted to look like plain text and a copy with the full HTML
formatting, both marked as quoted (with a bar on the left).
From what I can tell, this selection applies to all messages until you
make another choice. So for example, if you choose "Plain Text," all
messages will be displayed as plain text regardless of the sender's
settings. And the setting applies across all accounts within the profile.
AFAIK there is no way to tell SM, "Whenever you receive a /multipart/
message, display it as...." All messages are treated alike as described
above, until the user changes to a different global setting.
