So please accept my apologies if this sounds like a
wasn't-paying-attention answer, but have you tried sending them RTF in a
file with a .doc extension?  The trick I once learned from Don Marti
several years ago was that if you renamed an HTML file with .doc Word
would apparently just open it up as Pretty Laid-Out Text and convert it
internally.
