At present you can not unless you wish to changes your settings to
where ALL html is auto displayed using one of the plugins which you
probably do not wish to do.

I, on occasion, also get the 'blank' mail.

If it is something I wish to view I either click on the html icon and
view it with a plugin or open it in a firefox.

If you look at the code for the 'blank' email you will probably see that
it is: 
<HTML xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
rather than the more often used
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTMLxxx Transitional//EN">
