I don't know of any fixes for this one. The following MSKB article
discusses the issue and it only gives the workaround that I described.

You might also want to check to make sure that Outlook on the sender's
end is not set up to always send to you in Plain Text format. The
sender (whether it's you on your work machine, or your associate sending
you the request) should open your contact record, double-click your home
e-mail address, and see if it's set for plain text only.
