All these problems would vanish if only people used *real* mailreading
software, instead of bogotically conceived adjuncts to multimegabyte
trailing-edge crippleware hysterically touted as some kind of "advanced
technology". Like this:

  X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.61 [en] (WinNT; I)

Although arguably, the users of a similar product from Redmond may be in
worse shape.  They deserve no sympathy either.
