I almost always use plain text, but occasionally, it is helpful to use bold or italics to communicate something. I really don't think *bold* and _italics_ are acceptable substitutes. Granted, its annoying when someone sends an html message that has no communicating formatting, just a small sans serif font, but I can live with it.
