Because you are using Outlook Express.  Outlook uses a different rendering engine.   Charles Mims http://www.the-sandbox.org     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Hopper Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 2:03 PM To: The Sandbox Discussion List Subject: Re: [Sndbox] music.dat Rich text isn't HTML??? Then how come when I reply to a message that's plain text and go under format it gives the option of plain text or rich text. ( HTML ) and has the HTML in brackets after rich text?      From: Charles To: 'The Sandbox Discussion List' Sent: Tuesday, October 14, 2003 12:44 PM Subject: [Sndbox] music.dat Music.dat is a proprietary storage method for audio files.  It doesn't explain why it is being attached to email though, unless the registry is corrupted.  Using Outlook often produces a .dat file especially when using the "rich text" format instead of HTML.  It's normally an extremely small file that is part of the MS encoding for rich text.   It's possible that you are using a background music file in your stationary that is being converted to a .dat file because Rich Text doesn't normally facilitate background music.  Check your options to be sure you are sending in HTML or Plain Text.  Using Rich Text is asking for heartache.   Charles Mims http://www.the-sandbox.org     ________________________________ Changes to your subscription (unsubs, nomail, digest) can be made by going to http://sandboxmail.net/mailman/listinfo/sndbox_sandboxmail.net
