With the Thunderbird "View" -> "Message Source" option (Ctrl+U). I've just re-checked the raw message, and although I could have sworn I'd seen a plain-text version of the message included (at the bottom, after the HTML version), I'm not seeing it now; I just see the HTML block. So unless something has magically modified this on my end but still displays it the same way, I may have mis-reported initially. The setting which controls this selection in Thunderbird is almost certainly "View" -> "Message Body" -> "Plain text" (vs. either "Simple HTML" or "Original HTML"), but why that's resulting in plain text for this message when I see others appear as blank I don't know.
