You can comment those lines out and put these two lines *inside* of the
IF block in the function html_mail_disable_squirrelspell_do()

global $body;
$body = nl2br($body);

The problem with that is that if you have turned on "Use Signature" in
your Personal Options, and your sig is more than one line, it will get
munched into one line without that javascript solution.  

Take your pick.  I am leaving the javascript solution as default, since
if you really want HTML mail, I guess that's the price you pay.  My
machine is not the fastest in the world (somewhat old, actually) and the
delay is not really noticeable except on very large mails.
