The tl;dr?  exmh's html handler is very minimalistic - and that's being
generous.  There's lots of stuff that spews out of Outlook that exmh doesn't
handle.

To the best of my knowledge, exmh doesn't know how to deal with inline
image data like this.  I'd have to read the code to be sure, but I'm
suspecting it's taking all 20 meg of base64 and treating it as text and
trying to stuff it into a Tk canvas inline, which probably can't end
well....

Yes, if the image data is a separate part, it should work.
