Nat,
  Can you check the following?
1. Domino Account Preference: This is a server side setting that controls
the handling of messages by Domino Server. Can you take help from your
administrator to set it at
    a. No Preference (a.k.a. Keep in Sender's format)
    b. MIME
    and not Notes RTF
2. For mixed environments (where there are Notes Client and Outlook
Connector users), the best Domino Account Preference for everyone (including
Notes Client) is MIME. This ensures that information flows between Outlook
and Notes as somoothly as possible.
3. Always use HTML and encourage others to use HTML also. This might be a
policy decision taken by your IT Manager for Notes Client users also.

Hope that helps
