We are running a native exchange 2003 organization. I am currently
having an issue with outgoing html messages not being formated correctly
and the recipients of the emails receive html formating code in the
email like what is listed below. I have checked the Internet Message
formats settings and they are set to Mime & Both and the Character sets
are US ASCII. Exchange rich-text format is determined by individual user
and text word wrap is never use.

These emails were being sent out just fine last week and this week we
started to bring in an exchange 2007 server into the organization. We
have not started to migrate any mailboxes and are just in the initial
preparation phase of our migration.

What would cause clients to not correctly format the email messages. I
can cut and paste the message into a plain text file and the browser
renders the page properly but email clients do not.

Any help and/or tips on solving this problem would be helpfull.

Is the sample you posted the complete message? There are no MIME
boundary markers in there, even though the header says the message is
MIME. Also missing are From, To, Subject, Received,and probably a few
more I've misremembered.

Without a MIME body type identifying the content as HTML the client is
going to treat content as plain text.

If your messages are passing through some 3rd-party processing that's
where you should start looking.
