Well, Thunderbird worked out perfectly for me. You'll have to enable couple 
of options in there though. Below settings worked for me for Thunderbird 
client.

1. Go to Settings for Account -> Composition & Addressing and disable the 
"Compose messages in HTML format" option.
2. On Composition & Addressing -> Global Composing Preferences -> 
Composition tab -> General tab -> Send Options, you'll have to choose 
"Convert the message to plain text" option from the drop-down list.
