I use KMail, and have it configured to not render HTML by default, but 
instead show either the text/plain alternative or the unrendered HTML.

Most of the time I ignore any message to a mailing list that shows 
unrendered HTML.

So, even in GUI-based mail clients HTML shows up as the actual HTML code., 
but only if they are properly configured (or terribly misconfigured [1]).

my KMail.
