I suspect this will = be=3D20 close for other recent versions of Outlook. 1. Choose Options from the Tools menu. 2. CTRL-TAB twice to the Mail Format tab. 3. Make sure that the first item is set to send email in plain text. 4. Tab twice to the settings button and whack the space bar. 5. Tab once to the second item and make sure the "Encode text = using"=3D20 option is set to None. 6. Dismiss the dialog boxes with the OK button. This should get rid of the equals signs in your emails.
