Subject: Getting home directory in Windows 2000 environment

--- HTML contents snipped ---

 May I ask those of you who insist in posting in HTML format to reconsider!
	a) You're a SERIOUS virus security risk!
	b) You're polluting email
	c) Attached images add an unnecessary burden on email downloads

Offending software:
 AFAIK only MICROSOFT Outlook and  Outlook Express has this enabled by
default; SHAME ON YOU M.S!

Read below for help on how to disable this menace.

 IMNSHO a) alone is enough reason to turn this off *immediately*.

To turn it off in Outlook:
 Menu: Tools -> Options -> Mail Format -> Choose "Plain Text" as "Message
format"
      Klick [Settings] ->
        "Mail format" = MIME,
        Encode text using "none"
      Click [International Options]
        Enable "Use English for message flags" and
	"Use English for message headers on replies and forwards".
          (These are a MUST for certain software to be able to SORT on
Subject)
        I also reccommend:
          Use any "(ISO)"-marked encoding on
          "outgoing messages" and "unmarked received messages"
--
To turn it off in Outlook Express:
    Menu: Tools -> Options -> Send ->
      Mail sending format => * "plain text"
      Klick [Plain text settings] ->
        "Mail format" = MIME,
        Encode text using "none"
        Automatically wrap text at 76 characters when sending,
        Indent the original text with "> " when replying or forwarding.
    Repeat for "News sending format"	right below the above.
