 To beat some sense out of the internal editor, do this:
 
-- Under account settings, composition and addressing, uncheck "Compose

   Go to "edit->preferences->advanced->config editor" to bring up the
   thunderbird's registry editor, and set "mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed" to
   "false".
 
-- Enable "preformat" mode: Shft-click on the Write icon to bring up the HTML

-  line, then close the message without saving.  (This setting also applies to

+- Disable HTML Format: Set "mail.identity.id1.compose_html" to "false".
