This was previously broken for a lot of emails, but I just fixed some of
it, and it seems to work for the vast majority of our emails (and
certainly for all emails that matter).
The other point related to this is that each email should have a link
pointing to its text/plain version. This used to be present, but it got
broken (I think) at the same time that the anti-email-harvesting measure
got broken. I'm going to look at that next.
Let me know if you find something broken with this style of link.
