There are a ton of people who send HTML mail without text. Usually,
these people are not worth listening to, but what do you do when you
get a message that has the same content twice, once in HTML, and
once in text?

When you attach a file to a message, you can have your mail client
put "Content-Disposition: Inline" or something like that in the
headers before the base64-encoded data. The exact procedure depends
on your mail client; in kmail, you right-click the file after you've
attached it and pick the right option from the menu. The mail
client that receives your message will then usually render that file
below the message if the file's an image. pine/mutt wouldn't do
that, of course.
