OK, thanks. I should have clarified. What I've been doing for months (or years) now is that I've set Tools -> Options -> Mail Format -> Plain Text. As a result, whenever I send a message, if I go up to the Format menu, I see that Plain Text is already set (because of what I did in Tools -> Options).
So, the per-message menu has Plain Text checked; all the mails I send and receive in this tool appear as plain text; and thirdly, when I send messages to other accounts (e.g. my academic or home account) they appear that as nothing more than plain text. So it baffles me how it is that Wolfgang could be receiving HTML from me.
For example, I sent a message to my academic account with nothing more than the single word "test" in the message body. Here is the message as received at my academic account:

test
Note that nothing more than the word "test" has been received.
I don't know what else to do.

You should be setting it from the main window, not a subsequent one:
Tools->options->[mail format tab] set the compose this message format to plain text.
The preferences tab from tools->options allow you to set reply styling.
By setting the global you should find that most of your mails end up correctly....that is not to say every now and thing something strange doesn't happen. But its more on the order of several months, instead of every few days.

Wolfgang, you live in an imperfect world. I understand you are apoplectic. But please understand the rest of us are merely human. I have configured my mailer to send plain-text message in every way I know how. If I knew any other flag to set in my mailer, I would set it. My employer gives me no choice re which mail tool I use.
If anyone out there has any advice re whether M$ Outlook has a hidden, second, really-send-plain-text flag (other than Format -> Plain text which I have already set), I'd love to hear about it.
Thanks.
