Even the freeware Thunderbird client allows you to do this, Kmail by 
default is plain text unless you force it to HTML, Evolution will, 
Outlook Express will (not that it's a great client, but everyone has 
it), So will Outlook (also not great, but lots of folks have it.)

For Outlook:

Always Send in Plain Text to Certain Email Addresses in Outlook

To make sure Outlook always sends emails in plain text to certain addresses:

   * Select Go | Contacts from the menu in Outlook.
   * Locate and double-click the desired contact.
   * Now double-click the email address that can receive plain text only 
in the top right section of the contact's General tab.
     o You may have to click the down button next to the E-mail field to 
select an alternate address
   * Make sure Send Plain Text only is selected under Internet format:.
   * Click OK.
   * Close the contact's window.
