Sympa does recognize multipart/alternative in order to send test/plain 
alternative to subscribers with text subscribtion option. In any other 
case the message is sent as it is received. This mime structure seems 
strange to me because multipart/related and multipart/alternative are 
different and the way to mixe them should look like this :

Content-Type: multipart/alternative";
 boundary="11111111111111111111"

--11111111111111111111
Content-Type: multipart/related
boundary="2222222222222222222"

--2222222222222222222
Content-Type: text/html


--2222222222222222222
Content-Type: image/gif

--2222222222222222222--

--11111111111111111111
Content-type: text/plain
