What do you mean without any alignment? Text always has an alignment (unless the letters are scattered across the screen, I suppose). You're sending a plain-text email (with a MIME type of 'html'), so it's up to the client (OE) to decide how to display it.

Are you putting line breaks in the message?
I suspect that what you're missing is that you're meaning to put some HTML in the message, and aren't (the content type hints at this).
