I keep getting complaints from those who use Outlook that when I cut and

It looks fine for all other mail clients.  Any ideas what causes this or
if there is something I can do about it? Dumping on Outlook is not an
answer. Folks are going to use it, no matter what we think. If it looks
fine in SM it should look fine in Outlook.

In Word, you're NEVER cutting and pasting just standard text!

Have you tried stripping out the MSjunk by first pasting your text
into Wordpad or Notepad, then copying it again from there?



Yep that "fixes" it but then I loose all formatting.
Interesting that when I copy/past into Seamonkey it looks fine in
Seamonkey, G-Mail, My Android phone, and others but does not look
correct in Outlook.


Are you sending plain-text messages or HTML-formatted messages?

E-mail applications cannot always handle HTML-formatted messages from
different E-mail applications.  This is especially true when the HTML
does not comply with the W3C specifications.


Yes that might be my problem. I do send in HTML. I hate that, but folks seem to demand it these days, worts and all.
