Maybe you read format-flowed messages as html mail. 

It is not. It is simply plain text, with the format-flowed header and 
whatever special formatting (very few) it takes to be interpreted that 
way. If you receive such a message with a format-flowed capable mail 
client (like Eudora, or Mail from Apple), you will see an excerpt bar on 
the left and an emailer-like color coding. If you receive it with 
emailer, you will receive it as usual with the > marks ant the associated 
color coding.  

I did a test recently, sent a plain text email to me from Apple's mail 
app using OS X. I called it "Essai de entourage" by mistake (I had also 
tested Entourage, but with OS 9)

The headers of the message I then received from myself with Emailer are 
as quoted below. 

>Mime-Version: 1.0 (Apple Message framework v472)
>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed
>Subject: Essai de Entourage
>From: Jean-Pierre Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>To: Jean-Pierre Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
>Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
>X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.472)

Hope that helps.
