    Why not?  Last time I tried it, the result was correctly displayed by
    Rmail.

If the message displays badly in mail reader A, debugging that might
lead to some problem in how the message was written.

But if the message displays with no problem in mail reader A, that
doesn't tell us much about what it is about the message that causes
mail reader B to display it badly.
