I guess I am pretty lucky--I can't stand HTML email.  For the
motivated, you could probably create a GreaseMonkey script that would
solve the problem once and for all.  I've never done such a thing, but
I think you could create a script that searched for '<< Plain text',
within the current page and then simulated a click.  Bit of a hack,
but at least it automates the repetitive bit.
