It's above the headers, to the right of Signature and to the left of 
Attachments.  You can choose between "Markdown" and "Plain text".  I 
seem to remember that there was a "generate HTML part" option there too 
once upon a time but I may be misremembering.  Perhaps the documentation 
has become stale...

This message did have a multipart/alternative structure with a text/html 
part.
