I have set anything I can find to plain text, yet often when I get email
in HTML or Richtext and press reply, it will not convert it to Plain text,
but keep the format the orignal email was in.

That's exactly what I was saying.  When you reply to a message in Outlook,
it will always use the original message format.

We can debate why that is or is not a good thing, but that is the way it is.

The only way around it is to read all messages in plain text.  If running
Outlook 2003, use the option I mentioned.  If using Outlook 2002, modify the
registry.  Details at:
