Previously we inserted the lazy part at the start of the line after
the part button. But if this line had some text properties (e.g. the
colours for a following message header) then the lazy part gets these
properties. Thus we start at the end of the part button line, insert a
newline, insert the lazy part, and then delete the extra newline at the end of
the part.
---

I found a bug in the lazy-part patch set (v4): the problem can be seen
if you find a multipart/alternative text/plain text/html message with a
reply following it. Before this extra patch the lazy-part gets inserted
with the wrong text properties: in particular it gets the special
background colour that the headerline of a message gets in the show
view. I think this was why I had the "lazy part" text before but this is
probably better. 

I can fold this into the main series but I thought I would ask for
comments on this change first.

Best wishes

Mark
