It's got something to do with the margins and the way you have them set in
Outlook...we've had this discussion before when this group first moved from
yahoo to freelists.  And I see = signs at the end of your lines below and
Vic said 3D is the hexadecimal version of =, so I'm assuming your margins
are being read as = signs or something.  If you search our freelist
archives, you will see we've talked this one to death in here in the past.
I could set this group up to allow html, but that would also allow
attachments and viruses so I ain't gonna do that.  I'd rather deal with the
occasional messy email.

And, not all yahoo groups allow html ads...if the moderator sets the group
for plain text mail, the ads from yahoo are also text and not graphics and
Outlook would show you that that mail is plain text.

But, thank God, with freelists, we don't have to deal with ads at all, and
that's ONE of the reasons we all decided to move this group away from
yahoo...I only wish some of the other moderators of the yahoo groups I
belong to would do the same *sigh*  I HATE YAHOOOOOO

Thanks, Linda!

That begs an (on-topic!) Office question - Outlook (XP) is supposed to =
sense
the mail it is replying to and reply in a similar format.

As I type, it says (Plain Text) in the blue bar.

(When I reply to a Yahoo list, it says HTML since yahoo Groups adds the =
html
ads...)

So why am I getting it in the mso list?

Mark
