Bad news Dave.  There aren't any hex-values for those functions per se.
Every email client will have a different way to represent formatting.
That's why you're seeing recommendations for HTML.  It *may* be possible to
disassemble an email with formatting and discover what your client needs,
but unless the client supplies a published interface, don't expect it to
remain constant over multiple versions.

Good luck!
