Re: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome
I *think* that's because you've got an option checked to "reply in the same format as the message you're replying to". Certainly, earlier versions of Outlook & Outlook Distress had that option.

Yes but this setting gets overridden.. as you can see Im sending plain text now. Its overridden if you're replying to someone who didnt use plain text. You have to do like someone suggested earlier and once you hit reply go to Format -> Plain Text. - Brent > -Original Message- > From: Luke Davison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 2:19 PM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > > Outlook 2000: > Tools -> Options -> Mail Format tab, select Plain text > from the "Send in this message format:" dropdown. > > -Original Message- > From: Stroller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 11:16 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > > > On Nov 3, 2003, at 3:32 pm, Van Eps, Nathan D.

RE: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome
Actually, if you tell it to convert (yes, by hand) Outlook 2000 will just warn you that you'll lose formatting when you convert html to text. It works fine. I have to do it about 50 times per week on all these lists. I haven't tried it, but there is an option in Outlooks contact sections where, on a contact by contact basis you can tell it to use plain text. I don't know if it will convert a reply automatically though. - Mark > -Original Message- > From: Van Eps, Nathan D.

Yes, but if you are replying to an email with HTML in it, it won't use plain text. >-Original Message- >From: Luke Davison [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 1:19 PM >To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' >Subject: RE: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > >Outlook 2000: > Tools -> Options -> Mail Format tab, select Plain text from the >"Send in this message format:" dropdown. > >-Original Message- >From: Stroller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 11:16 AM >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > > >On Nov 3, 2003, at 3:32 pm, Van Eps, Nathan D.

Ahh - in the compose window! That little "feature" of Outlook has always annoyed me. They need Evolution for Windows :) (or I need to find out how to install mtools off the liveCD so I can get my wireless card working!)

RE: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome
In the format menu, just click "plain text". It will convert an html email to plain text. As far as I know, there isn't an option that forces outlook to always use plain text. So I have to use the menu every time. >-Original Message- >From: Brent L Johnson > >I am only sending text mails to this list.

RE: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome
I am only sending text mails to this list. But if someone else sends a NON text email to this list and I reply to it I am FORCED to send it in non-text format. As far as I know there's no way around that in Outlook. - Brent > -Original Message- > From: Paul Stear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, November 03, 2003 5:51 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > > Please only send text mails to this list > > On Mon 3 November 2003 00:31, Brent L Johnson wrote: > > I'm new to Gentoo.. but try running "startx" and see if > that does the > > trick? > > > > - Brent > > > > -Original Message- > > From: Alan Watson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Sunday, November 02, 2003 7:31 PM > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: [gentoo-user] Newbie - Can't start Gnome > > > > > > Probably a dumb question but I can't get Gnome to start > after running > > emerge gnome.

Try running gdm or kdm from the console... then choose gnome from the options. cheers, Oscar. Alan Watson wrote: Probably a dumb question but I can't get Gnome to start after running emerge gnome. Can anyone humour me and tell me... Thanks, Alan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
