Yes, but I don't want the email to be HTML formatted! And besides, even
if the email is in HTML format, you still can't reply to it properly by
interspersing your text with the original text, if the original text is
in a table - new text just gets added to the table and appears as if it
was part of the original email in both HTML format and text format.
