Description

If you set html: true and put in a message body that contains html markup, the markup just shows up in the e-mail dialog "as-is" (i.e., you see the brackets and such.) The message is not really sent as html.

Notes:
- 1.6 emulator doesn't support html: true at all. (No applications will be found to fulfill the request.) A device might, but the emulator no. Recommend that html not be used with 1.6.
- 2.1 / 2.2: emulator shows the formatted html in the send dialog, but you don't actually get the html at the receiving end. Device, however (at least mine), sends it correctly -- recipient gets the marked up html.

Test case:

   var email = Ti.UI.createEmailDialog( {
       html: true,
       messageBody: '<html><body>This is <b>my message</b>.</body></html>',
       subject: 'Test e-mail from Titanium',
       toRecipients: ['xxx@xxx.com']
   });
   email.open();

confirmed on nexus 1 running 2.2 - email sent and received had correctly html properties. Also confirmed on iOS (ipad 3.2.2 and 4.0 ipod touch). Failed for me using the android emulator with api's 1.6-2.2 fwiw."no applications can perform this action"
