well, 99% of the users (if gnome is going to world desktop domination)
will use what you hackers choose by default...

so i don't think is a minor issue, I've seen gnome hackers bashing
people from posting html in this lists ...

desktop people don't understand this(*), if you are going to ask, you
will confuse them, they don't know about internal formats, they just 
write and send ...

(*) when i ask to my friens and coworkers why they send me html email,
=all= of they ask: "haa ?, what are you talking about ?"

haa, that's because you have a html capable reader now ...  :)

maybe this can work: if the user don't use colors, bold, etc,
evolution will send in text/plain, on the contrary evo will
send multipart/alternative with text/plain & text/html
