* Rich Text: While I use it every day (I really like HTML in my e-mail in Thunderbird, it enables a lot of expression) I am not technically familiar with the difference between this and HTML.

RTF and HTML are quite distinct -- they are more or less completely unrelated beyond both being text markup languages.

RTF and HTML are unrelated, but several e-mail clients, including Outlook and Google GMail, refer to HTML-encoded e-mail as "rich text".
