Tools --> Options --> Mail Format

turn every instance of HTML to Plain Text.  pay particualr
attention to the (stupid) option that lets your reply
format be based on whatever crap the asshole at the other
end sent you.  (i.e. jerk sends HTML, you reply in HTML).
that option is why you are seeing different behavior at
different times.  some of your correspondents send you shit,
and you send it back...
