(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I'm not quite sure I understand the recipe here, but you mention that
the HTML should be two lines -- but the included HTML text was many
lines long, so I guess it's been mangled in transmission.

To ensure that I'm looking at the same thing you're looking at, can you
resend the HTML as an attachment?

(That is, if this problem is still present in recent Emacs versions.)
