I think it depends on the e-mail client that sends the original
message.
A good e-mail client will send a message that contains the same text in
both versions - plain text *and* HTML. The reader that cannot read HTML
will always see the plain text version.
I have no idea about the physical structure generated by web e-mail
clients.
If the plain text is missing from the message body, it also depends on
the e-mail program used for reading. Some will display all the tag
stuff, making the message practically unreadable by a normal human
reader. It may be some will display nothing, but I have not seen one
yet.
Best wishes,
Cristi
