Thx for the reply.
Can't do much about it being crappy, at least it's better than its Office 2000
equivalent; we have set on Outlook as a department standard for mail, makes it
easier to control stuff via GPO:s.
I agree it's probably the html-code produced from Sharepoint, as it opens fine
with Pocketknife Peek (while still in Outlook). I've been unable to pinpoint
the exact issue. If somebody can hint, I'd appreciate it. 8-]
Does anybody know if Sharepoint can be set not to use html-mail? This would be
the simplest solution, as plain-text mail is the preferred way to use mail and
which can be used by any mailer.
