Issue Summary
In the Mass Contact module, I provide a mechanism for allowing the person sending the message to specify the text format to use when sending the message (if the system administrator(s) allows it).
The way the Mime Mail module is currently built, it does not allow for that feature to function. Yes, Mime Mail does allow the system administrator(s) to specify the text format for the entire site, but that cannot be easily changed at run time, and certainly not by someone who does not have the permission.
I am proposing adding the functionality for giving Mime Mail a directive to change the text format of the body at message sending time, on a per message basis.
I am willing to do the work of making this happen, but I want to find out if this would even be accepted before I go through the process.
So, my question is this: would this be a feature that would be allowed in the Mime Mail module?

Sorry for the noise. I didn't sleep well. I'm not thinking clearly. My mail client apparently doesn't process HTML mail correctly. I'm wasting lots of time working in the totally wrong areas. :^( I should just go back to bed.

I think this is not a bad idea at all.
We have an issue with the markup checking which could be extended with this feature, see #1128354: Check markup only before wrapping. Currently what I think is to introduce a new message parameter which indicates if the markup needs to be checked or not. We can go further with that and tell not just if the body needs to be filtered, but we can specify it's input format too.
This way we not just fix a bug, but introduce a feature that would make the module more flexible.

#1505376: Views Send - Changing Mail Format does not change MimeMail format used is marked as a duplicate of this.
