Depends on your background, I s'pose.  HTML messages have their problems 
(largely due to how e-mail clients mark 'em up, from what I can see), 
and may not have any added utility over and above a plain-text message, 
but, damn!, they're generally more readable.  Unless, of course, you 
like reading messages that wrap every 40 characters or so. . . .

One of the things I /do/ look for in an e-mail client is the ability to 
have full justification, tho' that may just be my print background. 
When e-mail clients support, say,   in place of a tab (and IE, 
say, decides to render it properly), I'll actually be happy.

Just personal preference, I guess.  Again, it's that damned print 
background coming out.  And at least in Moz I can turn off JavaScript in 
e-mails, &c (an Outlook-using friend's major complaint with HTML mail).
