Try looking at the properties for each *folder* that exhibits this behavior:
Highlight the folder then click on the "Folder" option on Kontact's top menu bar. Set 
the option to "prefer html" option there. I know   you said you have checked this, but 
do so for *each folder* that does not have this.

The normal Drafts, sent-mail folders, and others in the "Local Folders" are not (iirc) 
connected to one specific Kontact identity or email account, so this might be why you 
see this behavior not being changed  - Kontact defaults to NOT using html.
