I want to send HTML e-mails and I am using for this "simplenews" in combination with "mimemail" and "mailsystem".

When you install the Simplenews module for the first time, a Simplenew category is automatically created (in the table "simplenews_category") with a format "plain text", and you have to change it to "html format" after the installation.

But if you have installed the "Admin menu" Module, you can't edit the Simplenews categories : the menu "Structure > Newsletters" has only one item : "Add Newsletter category" (see the screenshots).

You can change the format using the menu "Structure > Taxonomy > Newsletter" but this affects the field "format" of the table "taxonomy_term_data" and not the field "format" of the table "simplenews_category".

Looks all ok to me. To get to the overview of the newsletter categories, you need to click directly on Newsletter, not on any element below it.

If that doesn't work, then it might be because the default local task is missing, which should be fixed in #1305336: Re-think administrative menu items to follow UX guidelines
