One more thing... after my previous two posts, I went back in and selected "Plain Text" for that account, did a soft reset, and sent the same message again (these messages were sent from my laptop using Mozilla Thunderbird, incidentally).

The new message showed up as text only in Messaging, but the previous one was still there as HTML formatted. Also, the download options changed (smallest download limit went from 2KB under HTML to .5KB under plain text).

So, the HTML/plain text selection in "Options" appears to be a setting for how the messages are downloaded, not how they are displayed.

Personally, I detest HTML formatted email... kind of old-school that way.
