Thanks. I guess I would prefer a solution that allows me to keep
formatting messages in HTML by default, but I’ll consider this one.

The ‘Wants to receive HTML mail’ check box remains greyed out whether I
enable or not the ‘Format messages in HTML’ option. So I guess the two
are not related. But then, in which conditions would the former _not_
be greyed out?
