Description
Today I made an interesting discovery. If you create a HTML-only email, it can be sent.
If, in addition to that HTML-only email you add one or more attachments, no text is shown in the email's body.
If you then add some arbitrary plain text, the email is rendered correctly again.
Could someone please verify this assertion. If so, then maybe some addition checks, or a HTML-to-text converter should be added.
