Most professional newsreaders (esp. in Unix/Linux) know this feature...

/word/   italic
*word*  bold
Currently not supported in Mozilla (at least not out of the box):
_word_   underline.

You can disable this feature by adding the following line to your 
user.js/prefs.js:

user_pref("mail.display_struct", false);

(BTW, Netscape 6.xx has it diabled by default).
