In a more simplified rendering: 1 multipart mixed 2 ├─> text plain 3 └─> message rfc822 4 └─> multipart alternative 5 ├─> text plain 6 └─> multipart mixed 7 ├─> text html 8 ├─> multipart appledoubl 9 │ ├─> application applefile 10 │ └─> application msword 11 └─> text html So, at level 4 the "multipart/alternative" is shown and mutt's pager will show either level 5 or level 6, not both. As I have set alternative_order text/plain text/html it will prefer level 5 attachment to level 6 as level 5 is text/plain.
