Mangled in different ways (poor quoting style when replying).  I've seen
paragraphs in the right places, except for one post from them, where it
looked like they'd use <pre> around a section.

They're posting a multipart alternative message, using quoted-printable
encoding of the plain-text and HTML sections.  By now, all mail clients
should be able to handle quoted-printable (it's a many-years-old
technique), though it appears that some do not.  (Which, like HTML and
format=flowed, allows a paragraph to reflow and fill the reader's
window.)  

Microsoft's OE always made a mess of quoting when it was sending using
quoted-printable encoding.  It looks like their latest abomination of
Hotmail is just as bad.
