You are right in that requesting the plain text is the reason for the 
loss of the HTML. But you are wrong in saying that 
TemplateParser::messageText() is to blame for this. 
TemplateParser::messageText() didn't have another choice because 
QTextEdit would have totally corrupted any mildly advanced HTML message.
