Here's how you can use Safari to easily create a rich (HTML) email to be sent via Apple's Mail app. First, open the HTML email that you'd like to send via Mail in Safari, using the File -> Open menu item. Type Command-I, the shortcut for File -> Mail Contents of this Pages. You'll then see the HTML document recreated as a new composition in Mail. Add your recipient(s) to the composition, click Send, and you're done.

Notes:

[robg adds: This is a much simpler method than the pre-10.4 solution posted here previously. Also, this hint explains how to create HTML-formatted signatures for Mail. Let the 'plain text vs. HTML formatted email' comment war begin!]
