The feature comparison says that Thunderbird "Can only send plain text and HTML", but when I check the source of my outgoing mail it's sends it as plain text (Thunderbird client 102.2.2, not upgraded yet to 102.3). Perhaps the BetterBird feature is an extra per message inline option?

I think the new feature is that Betterbird can send a HTML-only email, without any plain text version. Or can you do that in Thunderbird already?

(In my opinion, this is not a feature but a bug. HTML-only emails are evil.)

Thunderbird can change this setting per message as well. In one of the menus (maybe Tools or Options or something, I can't remember), under Delivery Format.

If you hold down the shift key when pressing the “reply” button, it switches from your default format to the other one for that mail.

Thanks. How did you find out?
