[mso] Re: Quoted-printable (was Re: 3Ds and Ods in freelists emails)

Ok....I'll jump in here cuz I have 2002 and since this doesn't happen to me,
I assume my settings must be ok

In Tools>Options, I see two things that might be worth checking.

Click on the Mail Format tab...then click on the Internet Mail button...I
have mine set to wrap at 76 characters

Now, click on the International Settings...in there both of my top boxes are
Unchecked....Auto Select IS checked....and Western European (ISO) is my
"preferred encoding"

Is this how yours is set, Mark?

However, I DO know that if I reply to someone who has these weird Ods and
3Ds, I will have a few of them anyway...but not nearly as some I see in
other posts....like Errol's for example...one of his recent ones was
LOADED...LOL...here's a copy/paste of what his said....see all the Ods:

Content-Type: Text/Plain;
  charset="windows-1255"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

I *think* it can, but I haven't tested it yet.

In Outlook 2000, Internet Mail Only, you can go to Tools | Options | 
Internet E-Mail, and set the MIME encoding to None.  I've heard that 
there isn't a setting in 2002, but that 2002 chooses the encoding scheme 
based on how many 8-bit characters there are in the message.  If you want 
to force one particular scheme, you have to change the registry.  I don't 
use 2002, so I can't check for sure.

I don't know what happens when you reply to a message that has QP 
encoding.  Hopefully Outlook won't reply in the same mode, or that you 
can change encoding to "none".
