Found part of the answer to that: saving a normal email out of Messenger 
labels it 'message[number]/eml', but its filetype is set as &B86. Saving 
the 'Re...' attachment from the difficult email gives it filetype Obey. 
When I change this to &B86 and give it back to Messenger the whole email 
is shown with its two blocks of code.
