Given how weird this thing is at times, I'm going to lean toward your
thoughts on this.  ;-)  I've had times where someone will send me a
email off list and inform me that this thing is sending html again.  I
go in and delete the entries and then add the exact same thing back and
it works for a while, again.  Sometimes I want to paint a target on it
and use it for target practice.  lol
