From some (all?) phones all I get is an attachment. Or sometimes an image will show in the body but the text is attached as a .txt file. Have to double click and read in another program. Mac 78.13.0

Chosen solution

Make text attachments show inline by double-clicking mail.inline_attachments.text to true in Preferences/General/Indexing/Config. editor. Enable Display Attachments Inline under the View menu.
