I have not found it, sadly.  Also, italics are also lost, to my
occasional displeasure.

It would be very nice if the developers extended their semi-parsed
output to include those details, though, since that is the layer at
which the information is omitted as far as I could determine.

None of the w3m variants available in Debian[1] emit those codes, since
I actually went and checked a few months ago.

...this, of course, is why HTML mail is so evil.  All the world can see
the difference between arbitrary colours, right?  *sigh*

Footnotes: 
[1]  w3m, w3mmee, and the third variants seems to have departed these
     days.
