Mail displayed improperly after,viewing email with HTML inside. |

-- Description: Regular Text email is displaying fine. However when
you move to an email that contains HTML, the backround colors get messed
up, but the text seems to display properly. But when you move back to
view another plain text email, the plain text email, gets around 50
spaces added to the front of the mail message, which skews the viewer.
Version: Emacs 24.3
OS: RHEL 6.5
Email: mh-e 8.5
Steps to reproduce.
1. M-x mh-rmail.
2. Move to email with HTML, press enter to view.
3. Then move to plain text email, press enter to view
Hack fix:
I was able to get around this for now, by putting this in my .emacs
(setq mm-text-html-renderer 'html2text)
I am guessing that something was done to the HTML viewer on emacs from
23 to 24 which is causing this.
This bug does not exist with 23.3.1 with MH-e 1.8.2.
Thanks,
James

Thanks for the poke, Stefan. I have a vague recollection of having
seen this myself in the distant past.
However, this issue seems to have since been resolved, but I don't
recall how. Perhaps it was fixed in Gnus (which MH-E uses under the
hood) as I couldn't find any tickets matching this description in the
MH-E ticketing system. I could not reproduce it (with the very clear
recipe, thanks!) with the MH-E distributed with Emacs 27.1 with emacs
-Q.
I've cc'd Mike in case he has any more details to add, but otherwise,
I'm closing this as unreproducible.
