I suspect this is more to do with either your particular recipients
happen to use clients that support it (Mutt, Thunderbird are the only
ones to my knowledge) or that, since ancient times e-mail variously
gets malformatted by various clients under a wide range of
circumstances, and people have just become accustomed to it and ignore
the problem.  Probably some of both.
