I've run into several now that know full well the difference between
text/plain and text/html for email, and strongly prefer text/html.
(In fact they gripe at me for sending only text/plain). The root of
their complaint is that they don't like the narrow fixed margins I
set on my email that don't resize with their MUA window, and they
don't like the lack of colours. They say it looks boring, and
staid, and static. They then consider me a deranged alien when I
reply that the facts that it is plain, staid, and static are major
advantages of the format.
