I too was curious about this.  I took a closer look (the raw mail source).  
It's a multipart mail, with HTML in one part of the page.  I use KMail, and 
only see the first text part.  There's no indication of the additional 
content.  I *assume* that other mail products handle the display of this 
differently.
