Robert,
your Outlook Express 6.0 is NOT configured to send plain text to this list.
 From the headers I can tell you are sending multipart email:

 >X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/alternative by demime 0.98b
 >X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain

see http://www.expita.com/nomime.html for configuration instructions.

If the original message contained an attachment, then most e-mail clients
that provide a Forward will also include the same attachment. This operation
is called "Forward as an Attachment". Depending upon the e-mail program you
will need to look for an option under Reply(ing) or Forward(ing) and see if
this option is enabled. Another method of disabling the same thing is to NOT
reply in the format in which messages were sent. For example, see Outlook
Express -- Tools -- Options -- Send tab
