Mail.app --> embed html tags in message when composing?

[rgoer]

I suppose the thread title says it all, but does anybody know if it is possible to embed html tags in a message you are composing in Mail.app? Mail.app seems to be able to handle embedded html when you are reading mail but I can't, for the life of me, figure out to write my own. All I really want to do is have a signature file for my email that reads exactly like this:

I am the king of "spooky action at a distance" (http://www.google.com/search?q=spooky+action+at+a+distance)

I know that is a stupid reason... but I figure this will come in handy for any number of other things also. So, is it possible?

On one of the mailing lists I read, a member of the mail team admitted that the HTML support in Mail.app was not the greatest.

It's high on their list of things to improve, but he gave no timeframe for when it might be included.
