Hi Mark...and others.  All those weird characters are inserted when
freelists tries to convert your html mail to plain text....if you just
convert it to plain text within your email program BEFORE you send it, it
shouldn't happen.  (And if you use mail with backgrounds and colors,
freelists makes a real mess of it...and if you use something like
Incredimail, it's almost unreadable by the time freelists gets done
converting it)

Freelists isn't as forgiving as yahoo....so, ya gotta clean it up before it
leaves your house, so to speak.  I also notice that if I send a fresh mail
from here, I don't have those codes within my mails, but if I REPLY to one
that has them, I sometimes do.  So, if you aren't seeing it in ALL of your
mails, odds are it's just happening when you reply to one that's already
messy.

Another good answer!

Now, why to they keep creeping in to my simple Outlook e-mails?

(Could it be the way some lists convert html to text?)

Thanks,

Mark
