We came accross a similar problem at the office - It turned out that
certain versions of Outlook defaults to sending messages as Rich Text.
Change this setting in this version of Outlook to send as plain text fixes
the problem. I think that Outlook 98 was one of the versions to default to
this Rich Text type message. I suppose just another way for M$ to try and
set its own standards.............?
