Is text/html in the pass_mime_types content filtering setting?

Is collapse_alternatives set to No?

I suspect that one or both of those is not the case, and setting them
will solve your problem.

I further suspect that collapse_alternatives is the issue. Gmail
creates a multi-part alternative message with a text/plain alternative
containing Gmail's conversion of the HTML and a text/html alternative
containing the HTML.

If collapse_alternatives is Yes, Mailman simply replaces the
multipart/alternative part with the first (i.e.text/plain) alternative.
