I don't think there's anything for the Evolution list to
look at here. The message in question¹ does not contain a
text/plain part (aside from the footer added by the list
software).
The layout of the message (using mutt's representation):
1 <no description> [multipart/alternative, 7bit, 5.3K]
2 └─><no description> [text/html, quoted, utf-8, 5.2K]
3 <no description> [text/plain, base64, utf-8, 0.7K]
There is no text/plain part within the multipart/alternative
MIME part. (Part 3 is the list footer.)

Thanks. My MIME skills are rusty so I had assumed the text/plain part
referred to the message body.
