Description
Hello,
First of all I want to thank you for creating and maintaining this library, I have used it now in production for quite some time and have enjoyed using it thoroughly.
Currently the email package only supports sending either text or html messages, with the text message being chosen when both fields are present.
I have read from various sources that it is considered best practice to include both text and html message bodies in the email so that the email client gets to choose which format to display to the user. I believe this is a fairly simple change in the codebase and am more than happy to contribute myself.
Please let me know how to proceed on this!
Thanks

Research direction
Start by locating the email package and the code that currently chooses between text and HTML bodies. Confirm how an email containing both formats should be represented, then verify that the package can send both alternatives while preserving existing single-format behavior.
