(continuing the thread drift)
I do that to send Christmas greetings to friends.

I create a Christmas card as HTML incorporating a link to a suitable 
picture on my website and a few words. I do that using WebWonder or just 
hand-editing the previous year's HTML. The card in turn includes a link to 
my newsletter, also on the website.

Then I create an email message with a normal header, no text content and 
the HTML Christmas card as an attachment: last year's was called 
2018card/html.

It seems to work.

I have mixed feelings about otherwise being restricted to plain text. 
There are times when an odd bit of enhancement would be useful, such as 
highlighting a bit of text in bold or colour. On the other hand plain text 
is perfectly adequate for most emails, and most peoples' default of HTML 
seems unnecessary complication.
