I guess I stumped the experts. I still am very concerned about the fact that a 'new' mail sent as plain text gets mysteriously converted to HTML - anyone experience that?

Aloha, We have just installed an Exchange 2K server. We are using Outlook 2K and Windows 2K. We are not using Exchange for email at this time (Loooooooong story - please no flames - our managers want shared contacts/calendars right away and want to wait to convert our email - grrrrr). We use Outlook to read our 'Internet email' off of our UNIX Post.Office server. The problem is that Outlook issues the 'retrieve' to POP3 and immediately gets the email, it then issues the 'delete' to remove the mail from the server. THEN Outlook waits at least 5 to 10 seconds to issue the next 'retrieve' command (we sniffed the POP3 server). This is generally no big deal except that when a user exits Outlook to go on vacation or home or whatever, and queues up a large number of emails, it takes a very long time to completely read all their mail. I suggested to wait until we go to Exchange email but the bosses want it fixed now. I could not find anything in the FAQ, KDB, etc that matched the problem. There is one question that talks about TCP/IP issues but that has been ruled out here. Any ideas - and I already know that we should be on Exchange mail but that is not an option yet. Thanks in advance, Don Couch PS - another oddity - I sent this message three different times before this send. All three times I told it to go plain text - all three times it was rejected by the list as being stylized text or HTML - I bcc'd it to a co-worker and it showed up as HTML - what gives? I sent the other three when my Outlook settings were set to out all received mail in the 'mailbox'. I sent this message with the settings set to receive mail into the 'personal folder'.
