Personally, I'm using Sylpheed but Thunderbird would do as well. Thunderbird defaults to producing HTML, but this can be turned off -- either completely or for the current message only. Sylpheed defaults to plain text. >From quick googling it turns out that Evolution can't be set to not attach junk HTML, and Outlook, of course, exhibits the same behaviour.
