I found the following marketing page but it has some of the things I remember from the plain text guidelines of the early 2000's.

https://www.litmus.com/blog/best-practices-for-plain-text-emails-a-look-at-why-theyre-important/

I found this link on the Plain Text Project website:
https://michaelhyatt.com/multimarkdown/

The Plain Text Project website is:
https://plaintextproject.online/index.html

If you go to the resources page, Links, this is where I got the link "multi-markdown" link.

Cheers, Karen

Same question but different format. We talk about using rich text editor options like bold and italics. What if it is plain text? What is an appropriate way to emphasize text where no additional semantics can be added?

Thanks!
