With no message body - all headers.

Apparently YahooMailClient is suppressing the headers that would make it easy 
for Jim to follow the suggestions.  It goes on all the time and I blame the 
mail programs that are making a mess of things. Does the Yahoo client have a 
preference to show headers? 

Jim's empty message also came through in HTML format. Why in the world would a 
mail client add HTML headers to a blank message?

More to the point, why would Google's list software pass such things on? Jim's 
message was sent by Yahoo services. Is there something competitive going on 
there?
