(I asked this over on Usenet; I'll probably get some more replies if I ask here, too.)
I've got a reason (involving that angels-and-demons-RPG that Bob's worked on in the past) to compile a list of anime that have western-style angels as characters. They don't need to be absolutely accurate depictions of Judaeo-Christian-Islamic angels, but they do need to at least look the part...
Ah My Goddess! (TV) - the goddesses have assistant angels that are actually a part of them; each angel reflects her goddess' physical and emotional state.
Kamikaze Kaito Jeanne - assuming the anime is reasonably close to the manga, there's an angel and a fallen angel in the main cast.
Risky/Safety - Safety is an "apprentice angel".
Any more?
