The version of Outlook (not OE) with Office 2007 was more badly broken if anything than earlier Outlook Versions[1]. But the stuff used in Outlook may be filtering through to OE by now. http://www.sitepoint.com/blogs/2007/01/10/microsoft-breaks-html-email-rendering-in-outlook/ OR http://tinyurl.com/y5fxq5 Thunderbird does a pretty good job of sucking most things from OE into it during the install process. You may be pleasantly surprised. If it doesn't work, no harm done, it won't break OE. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
