There are many great features in Outlook 2000. However, there is one I would like the ability to turn off. Does anyone know of a way to disable the HTML display capabilities of Outlook 2000. Perhaps there is a way to turn off the Browser feature.If so, that would be a desirable feature. Can anyone help?

Try this -
Open outlook; under tools, options, click the tab for mail format.
The first section on this tab should have the option for how messages are composed. make sure this option says rich text or plain text, but not HTML.
I'm running XP - so this might be different for you - but there should be a box for Internet options underneath this mail format. Make sure the options in this are not showing to convert the rich text to HTML. All should be fine then.

The problem is not with the out-going mail format. It's how incoming mail is read or displayed. It appears the default is to have the mail displayed with the internal browser. There appears to be no way to turn this off. I seek information on turning off the display. If I get incoming mail that is encoded as an html message, I want the option of forcing it to display in "text only".
