nearly any mailing-list has it written clear, some even reject HTML
and on some others you get warned by the owner (postfix as example)

because the message had no single HTML formatting and
was written in plain but as HTML may be a godd reason

it hardly makes sense to write email in HTML, they just
explode after some replies/quotes and forwardings with
different clients while a conversation in plaintext
survises thousands of replies without lose a sane quoting
