Description
I have three problems that are probably related. The results are using Mozilla
Thunderbird.
1. When I send an HtmlEmail with attachments, embedded images, an HTML body and
an alternative text body both the alternative text and the HTML are displayed.
2. When I send an HtmlEmail with embedded images, no attachments, an HTML body
and I do not provide an alternative text body, the HTML body is not displayed.
3. When I send an HtmlEmail with attachments, embedded images, an HTML body and
I do not provide an alternative text, everything works almost fine. The only
problem is that when the SMTP server is sending emails outside its domain it
adds a disclaimer. The addition of this disclaimer means that only the
disclaimer is displayed. This does not happend when using Javamail.
Below is the class that I used for my tests.
import java.net.MalformedURLException;
import java.net.URL;

import org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException;
