Title pretty much says it all. I want to tell Thunderbird to edit and send emails in plain text by default.

How do I do that?

As @enzotib pointed out in the comment, this is set up in the Account Options, under "Composition and Addressing"

Thunderbird Tools -> Account Settings screenshot

Then Thunderbird will compose emails in plain text. To switch from plain text for one email to HTML, hold shift while you click on Reply, Forward, or compose and it will let you compose in HTML.
