| In the event my original posting was "garbaged up" as a result of being
| posted in Rich Text (HTML), I am reposting in Plain Text using a
work-around
| routine that circumvents the problem I am experiencing.
|
| My original post content was as follows:
| +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
| Am using Win2k & OE 6
|
| 1. My Outlook Express/Tools/Options/Send "Mail Sending Format" and
| "News Sending Format" are both set to "Plain Text"
|
| 2. But when I prepare to send an email or a newsgroup posting, the
| Format drop down on the message panel always shows a dot next to the "Rich
| Text (HTML)" instead of "Plain Text".
|
| Unless I reset the Format back to "Plain Text" before sending the new
| message/post, my messages are sent in HTML format.
|
| What additional settings, in addition to the main OE Options (No. 1
| above) are required to prevent the Send Format mode from automatically
| switching to the "Rich Text (HTML)" thus over-riding the OE Option "Plain
| Text"setting?
|
| Any suggestion as to how to retain the Plain Text as my default
| setting will be appreciated. It shouldn't be necessary to check Format and
| reset to Plain Text each time I generate a new email or news posting.
|
| TIA
