Hi ryfe,

Thunderbird does not know which to display as plain text (which is a good
idea concerning signed email but also to not display/execute HTML-embedded
spy-/malware) and which as HTML (like adverts you know of and want to read
as HTML, or genuine greeting cards from friends).

But you could use https://addons.mozilla.org/de/thunderbird/addon/1556 to
achieve part of it: per default view plain text and with a button click
away view as HTML. Note that there even is a function to let AHT remember
senders that you'd like to always allow HTML. Yet, this does not work for
me at least using TB 2.0.0.6, AHT 1.0.3, EM 0.96a on an IMAP account.

They ARE sent as HTML correctly. TB just forgets about that YOU sent it
and applies the current settings for viewing en Email. So, clicking the
"Allow HTML Temp" button also gives you the HTML view of the Email you
just sent.
