Check what you have set for "Internet Format" and "International Options." What encoding are you using for outgoing messages? Have you tried changing to a different encoding? Or it could just be your Exchange server (or any other stop along the way) that is adding the =3D3D3D20 to your messages when an unknown character is found = =3D in your message. Your header says:=3D3D20 >X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1165 >Content-Class: urn:content-classes:message >MIME-Version: 1.0 >Content-type: text/plain; charset=3D3D3Dus-ascii >Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Perhaps the =3D3D3D20 is the result of some funky behavior between =3D us-ascii encoding and 2003. Is your email server formatting or retouching -so to speak- your email messages before forwarding them? Just a thought!

Troublemaker strikes again. I am using Outlook 2002 on an XP laptop, I'm 99% sure our exchange server is running 2003. =3D3D3D20 Honestly everyone! The extra characters don't bother me.
