OK well i hope we can help you satisfy your wife... My previous advice was to look at kmail's html mail templates, but a bit of googling reveals that a common complaint in kmail reviews is the lack of templates. This may be because the developers are probably true geeks who appreciate the more correct advice that email is a text....ok been there done that.
I guess you are probably stuck with putting in the (fairly minimal) html code for the background image with each email, and/or calling an external editor. Have you done as I suggested and looked at the source file of an outlook email with a background of the sort the missus wants?
