I'd treat it like a web page (structural markup, text equivalents for
non-text elements, etc.) except that some users may not have
HTML-friendly emailers.

And it depends on whether you're talking about mail outs, or interaction
on a mailing list. If the latter, then a whole bunch of rules of
etiquette come into the equation - none of which would be covered by
treatment similar to a web page.

Cheers,
Dey
