I'm having the exact same problem. Just moved from Outlook Express to
Outlook 2003...all e-mails I send in HTML format are received in plain text.
I've tried sending to my work e-mail...sending to a hotmail account..and
sending back to my own address...all received in plain text.
Outlook 2003 is on my home computer...not part of a network or on a
server...so I'm assuming it doesn't have anything to do with the server
stripping the formatting as suggested below. I went to myrealbox.com...they
aren't accepting new accounts right now.
Anyone with any help or thoughts...it would be appreciated.
Thanks.
