Description
Steps to reproduce
The default editor mode (for new, provisioned) mail accounts is set to plaintext.
This destroys e-mail formattings and just isn't usual in the current day and age, since every mail client defaults to HTML-Richtext emails.
Expected behavior
When a new account is provisioned, set it to richtext.
Actual behavior
When a new account is provisioned, it is set to plaintext.
Mail app version
1.17.7
Database
MariaDB

Research direction
Trace the account-provisioning flow responsible for the default editor mode, using the reported plaintext behavior as the starting point. Done means newly provisioned mail accounts default to richtext while existing account behavior is preserved; add or update coverage for that provisioning behavior.
