Look at my original in the archive at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2009-October/067496.html> or even as quoted in your reply at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2009-November/067555.html>. Both of those show proper formatting. I guess that's just one more thing we can't trust Outlook to do. BTW, indentation in steps of 4 is only a convention, it isn't mandatory. The indentation could be 1 space and 2 spaces or 1 tab and 2 tabs or even 4 spaces and 1 tab, although mixing spaces and tabs is dangerous and highly frowned upon. However, in any case, the highest level (the first 3 lines in the example) must not be indented at all. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
