Take a look at the Inspector.EditorType method.

Try this:

Select Case (olMailItem.GetInspector.EditorType)
Case olEditorHTML:

Case olEditorRTF:

Case Else

End Select

You do your homework in the object browser: Press ALt+F11 to open the VBA
environment in Outlook, then press F2. Switch from <All Libraries> to
Outlook to browse all Outlook objects and their properties, methods, and
events. Select any object or member, then press F1 to see its Help topic. If
you searched for "RTF" or "HTML," you'd probably have found it.

Either that or ask, as you did originally.
