Did you read the bugzilla and look at the other message headers, to see
whether the overall HTML message content-type headers in yours was like
the bugzilla?

With a multipart message (text and pictures), there's one type of header
you could expect.  With a multipart alternative (a text version with a
HTML version, there's another type.  Some mail clients, particularly
Microsoft ones, are infamous for creating outright broken message, so
all bets are off regarding proper interpretation.

Here, using Evolution, I could see the disco dancing Fedora panda, and I
noticed that its content ID was in the more usual form that looks
somewhat like an email address (something@something), whereas the
failing message had a simpler (RaNdOm) kind of ID.  I don't know if
that's an extra consideration, or not a problem at all.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying
to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
