I think you still have a few misconceptions here!

Firtsly, neither you nor anyone else has been sending HTML mail for 
twenty years!! HTML hasn't been around for 20 years. Mailers with 
HTML support have been around for far less, IIRC the first appeared 
around 1995/6, and didn't (inter-)work well or become become that
widespread for another year or so.

Also, even with "Enable HTML Formatting by default", PMMail 2000 
does NOT make an HTML format message UNLESS you use mark-up (bold 
etc, or change font. It (correctly) only use HTML format IF you 
start using features that require it (verified with v2.20.2380).
