The problem is that RTF is viewed as HTML by Email clients (and in this case, the list) that cannot read RTF.
Please refer to the Microsoft Knowledge Base info at: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q217390 As usual, this is because there's a proprietary M$ thing that is used in Outlook when sending something in RTF.

It blows up some people's email (and it takes up a lot of room) My apologies to all for the bloat of my first four or five messages as a renewed PDML member. The strange thing is, I use MS Outlook 2002 set to Rich Text--not HTML. Nothing like this has ever happened before. (At least, no one has told me.) I might have suspected that PDML's new server can't "handle" Rich Text; the list server wouldn't unsubscribe me a few months ago, or resubscribe me this month, until I used Plain Text.
