When you have a mail with multiple parts, there should be some sane
logic applied to handling it. If you have a multi-part alternative
section, then you should get to see one of those parts by default,
ignoring the alternatives. When you have another section tacked on
that is NOT one of the alternatives, it should always be displayed.
plain HTML
text or text
message message
&
PGP
signatures
&
list
footers
Each of those blocks is a section. Only the first two are an OR
situation, everything else is an AND. The ORed sections should be
treated the same whether you're reading a message, or replying to it.
Quite how his Evolution created a blank plain-text session I don't
know, as I can't see an option for whether, or not, to also create a
plain text section when you're creating a HTML message.
I have noticed Evolution screw up when deleting parts of messages,
before. Such as trying to trim out quotes. I'd noticed that if I
tried to remove a few words, it'd often remove the entire quoted
message. I'd have to copy the text to somewhere else, edit it, then
paste it back in again. So it's message editor is a bit wacky, as far
as I'm concerned.
