RTF is very well defined, and has been for a very long time.

What was only "recently" defined was the format of winmail.dat.

Reason I ask is that MS Rich Text is not exactly a "standard" and I've seen 
seemingly identical clients display it differently.

I'm not 100% sure.  It came from the President of our parent company.  But, if 
it was sent Plain Text, then nobody should be getting it in HTML, correct?  So 
I'm assuming it was HTML, but you know what assuming does. :)

How was the email sent? Rich text or HTML?

Greetings,

We have a mass email that went out to a bunch of people in a distribution list 
(Exchange 2007).  Some people received it in Plain Text, and some received it 
in HTML (even though all the Outlook 2007 profiles I looked at said to use 
HTML).

If someone that originally received the message in HTML format forwards it to a 
user that originally received the message in Plain Text, the new message shows 
up in HTML.

If someone that received the message in Plain Text forwards it to a user who 
originally received it in HTML, the new message shows up as Plain Text.

I can't figure out why some people receive the exact same message in HTML, and 
some in Plain Text...... and if each person forwards their email, the HTML or 
Plain Text does not change.

Thanks,

Rob
