Ticket #9827.Actually Thunderbird displays the bmp inline, the pps is displayed as attach..
But hey, if the message is not in the correct format, the client
behavior is also "unexpected".

multipart/alternative

image/bmp
In other words, show the image if possible but if not then show
placeholder text that says that an image is attached. Still not
tremendously useful.
Thinking about this a bit more... I would not be opposed to outputting
a status message saying there are message parts contained within a
multipart/related part that can not be accessed via the base related
part. Although I'm not sure how easy this would be.

This is what the MIME structure looks like for the BMP message:
multipart/related
multipart/alternative
text/plain
text/html
image/bmp
The image/bmp MUST somehow be referred to in either text/plain or
text/html (the "root" part of the multipart/alternative). The whole
point of multipart/related is that the ENTIRE part can be represented
in a single data object. multipart/related does not allow attachments
inside of it - that simply doesn't make any sense.
If Thunderbird is showing this part, its attachment recognition
algorithm is badly broken (which is true, as previously mentioned when
discussing forwarding).
