Unfortunately, it seems I was too hasty in confirming this.
For some reason unknown to me, replying to the html in some
multipart/alternative works fine, but others cause the same error to be
thrown. I've also seen the error occur when replying to a
multipart/mixed message, too.

Even more bizarrely, I'm currently looking at a thread with two emails
where both are multipart/alternative and contain text/plain and
text/html parts, and replying to the first message triggers the
error/bug but replying to the second message does not. I can't see any
formatting difference between the two.

Sorry, but it would appear as though there is still some work needed to
resolve this in it's entirety. I suppose it's likely that this could be
an emacs-25 issue, but what I mentioned above makes no sense to me so I
can't say for sure.

I'd happily post some debug info to help analyse this if somebody could
give me a few pointers about what would be needed and the emacs-fu
needed to generate this.

Cheers,
