Either the receiving sever is set to not accept HTML email or It is set to not accept Text emails.

I will punt on the former and say, go to the address book for this recipient and change the box in "prefers to receive emails formatted as " to Plain Text and try again.

I have not seen such a mail server outside of corporate mail systems for years, but that is not to say they do not exist.
