The message lacks a "Mime-Version: 1.0" header.
Such a header is required by MIME in order to recognize the
message as MIME message and not an old RFC822 message.

Apparently, many mail readers are not as strict and
recognize a MIME message even if the "Mime-Version" header
is missing. "pine" seems to be strict....

"dtml-mime" should generate the "MIME-Version" header.
Put this bug into the collector.
