[ExchangeList] Re: Plain text vs html [restriction]

You can't control how you receive the message. If a user sent message to 
someone in HTML you will receive in HTML. A prime example is the issue with 
winmail.dat files. When a user sends RTF, a recipient using non rtf compatible 
clients will get winmail.dat. You can't have the client say I want to receive 
this message as plain text. The sender must re-send as plain text. I'll try to 
find out from our BB guy if we've ever run into this scenario with users 
sending out HTML messages to BB users.

Well let me just describe out what I wish to do and see if its at all possible..
 
We have a handful of blackberry users..
We also have a marketing manager that likes to send out html formatted emails.
 
The blackberrys do not like html emails and you cannot read them
 
So basically I thought or wanted to find out a way to restrict certain users 
just to receive plain text only email..
 
Maybe it cannot be done..

Perhaps thats information that should have been mentioned before, I think 
everyone assumed the same as I did and your users were using Outlook 2003.  The 
client is where your going to enforce this type of setting, not on the backend 
servers.  What client are they using?

Maybe I'm not up to speed on group policies etc. but how will office GPO's help 
me set up a user to use plain text only when they are not using office or 
should I say outlook...

Is this in the built in templates or do I need to add this somehow.

Scott,
You can use the Group Policy for applying the default mail format to Plain Text 
to all users.

I was wondering if there is the ability to force plain text emails on a per 
user basis on 
exchange 2003..
 
Or some information regarding how to accomplish this..
 
thanks
Scott
