Since the message was in plain text, it's not possible to
underline/bold/italicize. It's generally accepted that when typing in plain
text, the underscore before and after a word like _this_ is read as that
word being underlined, while asterisks before and after like *this* is read
as bold or italics (basically, emphasis).
