This one is important.  You didn't mention your mailuser agent.

This one is also important, namely using the complete spam from #1
according to your mailuseragent, paste it into the appropriate
webparser, either 2 part or 1 part.

That means that you failed to paste the body into the webparser which
means that you failed to follow the instructions for your particular
mailuser agent.

I can see that it is mulitpart alternative, but that doesn't mean that
it can all be pasted into the webparser.

What is your mailuseragent?  How do you obtain your access to what I
call the smtpmime or is also called the 'message source'?
