Thanks Allen,

I tried that, but was unable to change character set, even when I selected "edit message".  The format menu remains grayed out.  Perhaps I don't understand how to reformat the character set on received e-mail.  Even so, there doesn't appear to be anything unusual in the source.  I've pasted below the source information (minus the addresses) from one I received this morning which was hanging up when I tried to print.  Plain text, US-ASCII - nothing unusual as far as I can tell.

Allen, if you'd like I can forward this latest problem e-mail to you to see if you get the same effect.  I probably had 40 e-mails this morning, two of which were from the same person.  Both of them hung Entourage when I tried to print.  They were both sent from a Hotmail account.  Tried printing with complex HTML turned off and turned on.  No difference.  Very curious.
