Plain-text mails post as multipart (html + text) with messed up formating

When I create a plain-text mail and send it with MailGun, it arrives as plain text, but when I use SparkPost, it arrives as a combination of HTML and text.

I've contacted SparkPost, and after some investigation, they say:

I can tell you that SparkPost will only send what is in the content. It won’t alter anything once it is received.

Any ideas why that might happen?
 
Update:

For some reason I couldn't send with Mailgun after I've upgraded to 1.5, so I installed Sendmail as a delivery server.

I sent a test mail of my plain text message, and it was fine. So I sent to my whole list, and it added a "html" layer, and it's all in one paragraph.

Hi Britt :) Last week, I recommended that you got Tiffany Lambert's self-help PLR package. I bought it myself, and I showed you how to write blog posts for your author blog. But... what about using it for books? Amazon does NOT approve of PLR. I said you could use it as research... but a few days ago I discovered something that makes it a lot better. =================================== Arun Chandran's PLR Rewrite Formula =================================== I've read and watched several products that attempted at teaching me how to rewrite PLR, but I wasn't completely happy with them. This one, though... Wow! It's an inexpensive ebook that explains the two systems he uses to make PLR completely unique. He also shows you over-the-shoulder examples of doing it. Arun and I have been Facebook friends for a long time, but it's only recently I've discovered his products, and I'm a huge fan now. He's a very funny guy, he has personality, and his products are well-written, clear, and explains everything so well. >> Click here to check Arun's awesome PLR Rewrite Formula >> http://malka.im/plrrewritingformula -- Thanks, Britt Malka Support: http://MalkaSupport.com

Might be because of the PHP Version, you need PHP >= 5.6 afaik.

So I sent to my whole list, and it added a "html" layer, and it's all in one paragraph.
It added a html layer even if you only selected to send plain text only ? Are you sure it's html and it's not just plain text? Can you add the source of the whole email here?
 
Yes, here it is:
