What do you mean "Mew does not hide the HTML"?

Since this is a Multipart/Alternative, either Text/Plain or Text/Html
should be displayed according to mew-mime-multipart-alternative-list
(if mew-use-alternative is 't').

In my environment, this feature works.

However, the forwarded messages disclosed a new bug of
Multipart/Alternative. If Multipart/Alternative is enclosed in
Multipart/Signed (or Encrypted), the end boundary gets wrong. So, an
unnecessary boundary is displayed.

This bug has been fixed on anon cvs.

I guess you don't install openssl as a S/MIME engine. So, this message
is displayed. I think Mew should display "S/MIME signature has not
been verified". But I'm not maintaining mew-smime.el at this moment.
