Good Morning,

I have some incoming emails that are being displayed in a format that I don't want. I believe it is rich text format. Not all emails are displayed like this. I checked all of the settings and they are set to HTML. When change it to PLain text nothing happens to the certain messages, but the messages that are "right" are changed. I do want to keep HTML format, but i would like these certain messages to follow the display of every other message.

Thanks

Microsoft help for Outlook says this:

[i]By default, you see messages the way they were sent, which means that the sender controls the message format. However, you'll be glad to know that Outlook gives you some control over how you see a received message, regardless of its original format. For example, there is an option to view all received messages in plain text if that's your preference. [/i]

If you turn this feature off, you go back to seeing email the way it was sent.

I suspect that if you change your received mail to "view in plain text", mail you have already received is not changed. It works on future mail received.
