In Tbird got to Tools > Options > Composition Look for a Send Options button Click on that and you can tell Tbird to always send in plain text only to those addressees specified as plain text in your address book. There is also a plain text domains tab in the lower section of the screen. Select that and you can add Legacyusers.com as a plain text domain then all messages to users in that domain will receive plain text messages.
