Works as designed.  The message structure is correct now, but there is no 
plain-text part.  So a MUA that is capable and configured to display HTML
e-mails has no choice but to assume that you wanted the first part to be 
displayed directly as it is not marked as an attachment.  Consequently, it 
*must* consider and display the second HTML part as an attachment.

It might help if you inserted a plain-text part before the HTML part, and 
you should have such (so that people who are not keen to see HTML messages 
see anything in that message), but you should also mark the parts as 
*attachments* that you want to be considered that by the MUA.

See RFC 5233 and RTFM for details.

It does (although you could have trimmed the parts in the middle), but next 
time you want to post a follow-up to *my* message (or that of whoever posted 
a follow-up to yours), not to your own.  This newsgroup/mailing list is a 
discussion medium that uses *threads*.  As you have not observed that, I 
have seen your posting only now as I checked the newsgroup manually, while 
otherwise I would have been notified of it when I started my newsreader and 
automatically checked all newsgroups for new postings.

Since you are using Google Groups, see
