[snip] > For instance in Outlook Express do like this: > Choose Tools|Options...|Send > Under "Mail sending format" choose "Plain text" No S**T Sherlock! I don't want it set to TEXT. Over 90% of the e-mail I receive is in HTML format. Over 90% or the people I send e-mail to prefer HTML format. Some people want e-mail sent as a WPRD DOC as a file attachment. I had no idea that people in this list preferred text format. There was nothing stating this when I joined it. Maybe you should contact the person running this list and complain to them about not telling people to use text only format for this list. I changed it in the adress book for this list so that anything I write to this address will now be in text format. Maybe you would like me to set it to text for everything then have to re-select HTML for over 90% of the messages I send. This list is not the only thing I use e-mail for. I am not about to change my setup just to suit you. GET A LIFE. RTFM! > As you can see I started up Outlook Express on university just to be able > to see where the setting was.

Actually you can set the default when it is installed. I chose HTML because that is what I use over 90% of the time! GET A LIFE! RTFM!
