Ok. I was about to say yes you can turn off Word as your editor but before I actually sent that, I checked, and you're right. Microsoft has added the Word editor as the built-in editor for Outlook as of OL2007. That being said, you could set Outlook to send out plain-text emails. J

It's a compromise, as are so many things. You want something that can render HTML, yet do so safely. You don't want to have the same issues with modern email programs using the full IE rendering engine that Outlook 2003 did. You don't want to invest in multiple editors, that not being a good

Not exactly true. An IP address is just an IP address. It's like saying that RFC 1918 addresses can't be routed to the Internet - it's absolutely not true, and if you look at the addresses hitting the outside of your firewall, you'll see plenty of them. They *shouldn't* be routed to the Internet,

Why not, like IE does, allow you to specify your editor? I'll take Notepad, Notepad++, PFE32, Crimson, VIM or any of a host of others before I'd take Word. Bad, bad, bad decision. And, I doubt that Word is any safer in rendering HTML than IE, ultimately. Kurt On Wed, Dec 9, 2009 at 10:53,
