Okay, I found it.

I've made sure HTML is unchecked in this email.  I checked some replies 
I've written that haven't been sent out yet and even with that button 
unchecked, they're formatted with HTML.

Is there some way to specify this as no HTML permanently?  It seems 
there are a lot of settings KMail expects me to set or check every time 
I open the Composer window to write an email.  (I'm not trying to 
complain to you about it -- I appreciate the help, but it is a serious 
flaw in the UI.)


Thanks for the info!
