I've been discussing this with the new meeja agency I'm dealing with, and
they seem pretty sure that not only is it 50% or above, but that people
respond much more favourably* to HTML email than to plain text email.
Depressing, but apparently true.
Since webbugs would allow you to track the % of people with HTML mail
pretty accurately, I'm inclined to believe figures I hear on this, although
obviously different kinds of mailing lists will tend to have slightly
different figures wrt this.
*Where favourable is determined by % that click on the link you put in the
email.
