Tim, I have noticed the same problem when dealing with Outlook recipients. Unfortunately, it means that my emails are often hard to read for those people. I too think its an Outlook problem, but at the same time, since I can't fix Outlook, I wonder if there's anything can do in Mutt to make Outlook not do whatever its doing with the email.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to handle this problem?
