My understanding with Exchange 2000, is there is no NATIVE format.
Exchange saves the message in the format from which the client created
it.  This saves overhead of the ESE of having to reformat messages as
they go into the stores.

E.G.  If you connect to Exchange using OWA, Exchange will save the email
in html because that is the format it was created in.  To add to this
point, if the message is created in SMTP, HTTP, or NNTP format, it will
be stored in the .stm (streaming) store.  If the message is created in
RTF from the MAPI client, it will be saved in RTF format and stored in
the .edb (Exchange Database format) store.

Hi John,
  I had to reply to your message, about the html format.  I don't see
under listing 5 to be a strong argument to switch to plain text, since
the past month I haven't received any messages above 30KB and even that
is small.  There are a lot of advantages to use html format that are
being used besides emailing to this formum.   I am running Exchange 2000
(its native format is HTML) and utilized its multimedia features from
time to time.  To switch back and forth from html to text does sound
favoritable only because I am taking advandtage of the technology that I
have. This might be a good indication of where plain text might be
showing its signs of being old technology, the phasing out of the old to
the new.  I understand there are a lot of legacy mailing systems that do
not support it but that is why isaserver.org has a webbase (html) forum
to support thoses systems.  JMOP - Dave -----Original Message-----

Here is a posting that is used on another list I am a member of:

Proper etiquette when posting to a list or forum!

When posting to a list or forum, please comply with the following
"rules:" 

1. Turn off Return Receipt Requests.

2. Please search the archives and FAQ.

3. Do not add attachments unless specifically asked to do so.

4. Only add .zip or .txt attachments. Others waste bandwidth and are not
necessary.

5. Do not post in html format. The size of a message in HTML is a lot
larger than that of plain text. This is a problem for those on dial-up
and those with PDAs.

6. Understand what it is you want to ask, and visit:
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

7. Delete unnecessary text when quoting or replying to a post. It is
wasting bandwidth.

8. Do not use a "DIGITAL SECURITY Signature". It wastes bandwidth and
causes problems to some users, like those with PDAs.

9. Please use a subject line that will attract attention to your problem
and offers an insight of what asking about. (Example, a subject line of
"Help" will be ignored.)

10. If you change the topic or direction thereof, change the subject
line.

11. If you want a good answer, provide good details.

12. Please allow time for people to respond to your post. We are working
too. Plus, some lists are known to be slow to post.

13. Please do not include lines of company/private legal disclaimer. You
are sending to a list. It is going to be resent to everyone on that
list.  This translates into no longer being a private or confidential
message. Also, some lists are archived and have been known to show up on
Google searches.

14. Do not include any line as part of a message "signature" like, "If
you have received this communication in error..."

15. If your post is criticized, please reread your original post you
sent along with the reply and take a few minutes to think about them
before snapping out your reply.

16. Do not initiate a flame against others. It is improper to do so on a
list. Take it off list. Also, 9 times out of 10 you will be proven
wrong.

Please note: This list is a collaborative effort and will be changed
upon valid suggestions.
