I have my mail app (KMail) set up to show _all_ email as text_only.
This message contained no visible html coding. NOrmally, if I
get an email encoded in html, KMail shows it in text (including the
html tags) and provides a one-click way to render the html if I "trust"
the sender. I never do. 

And, no, I'm not paranoid. Really! :)
