You have a pull-down menu at the top-right corner of each mail in
gmail.  There you can choose "Show original".  This will show the raw

Possibly this menu item appears only in English language mode, though.

I revised the patch.  Attached below.
Try it instead.  You'll have "Bass Speaker" mixer switch, maybe at the
most right side.
