Yes! I have been having this issue with ALL your mails. It is quite
annoying to try to read these messages. I use Evolution, so I expect
this would be a very common problem for many Linux users.

In fact, my mail filters do not work on these messages either, so I have
to deal with them by hand, which adds to the annoyance.

Note that you are not the only one doing this on this list; there are
others as well.
