There must be something wrong with my setup then. Wrong? Well... :-) I redirected a html formatted solicitors letter to my Wife yesterday and the only attachment she received was the word document. Everything else was exactly as I received it. no eml or msg attachments at all. Was that message HTML only? Maybe thats a clue, I haven't tried that. I just tried this: sent myself a message in HTML format (it has a text part, too). But - no matter what I do (alternative or normal forward, redirect), I end up with the MicroEd the message as attachment (.eml in the case of alternative forward, message.html + inline images when using normal forward/redirect). I then changed the default editor to HTML only - I still end up with the original message (plus included images) as attachments. Whats worse, when I open the attached message.html, its missing the included picture (of course) - because that is in a separate attachment after forwarding... -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) using v3.0.2.6 on Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2 Dilbert's Words of Wisdom: I don't have an attitude problem.

Hello Alexander, Tuesday (November 9, 2004, 11:59 AM) you wrote: ASK as discussed on TBUDL (see subj.): ASK https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=4036 Because of the apparent lack of clarity in the other branch of this thread, I would like to reiterate and clarify this request. In popular e-mail clients, when you in-line forward or reply to an HTML message the formatting of the original message remains in tack. In TB!, the in-line formatting of the message is lost. IMHO, TB! has it wrong here and this likely confuses and frustrates new users used to popular e-mail clients. Further, it frustrates me because I too would like to forward an HTML formatted e-mail with my comments, but I am not able to, without destroying the HTML formatting. While I am ranting, I cannot find an option, in common folders, to turn off Forward message as mime attachment. You must use Alternate Forward to get an in line forwarded message in common folders. Can anyone confirm this.

Hello Alexander, A reminder of what Alexander S. Kunz typed on: 10 November 2004 at 17:13:02 GMT +0100 ASK Was that message HTML only? Maybe thats a clue, I haven't tried that. Ah, you never mentioned mixed content, just html. The message I tried it on after reading your post was from a Government agency who probably use OE and don't have the faintest idea what the difference is between text, html or brail. So yes, it was, apart from the word doc attachment, just html. Images on the other hand always seem to come through as attachments.

Hello John, A reminder of what John Thomas typed on: 10 November 2004 at 21:43:55 GMT +0100 JT IMHO, TB! has it wrong here Problem is so many people on this and the other lists fought long and hard to keep html of any description out of TB! completely.

Given that most HTML rendering is done by the MS-supplied DLLs (maybe TB! has it's own, I do not know), I am really, really, not willing to see HTML-based e-mails... We are getting one exploit after the other on this... last one is the IFRAME. It is much prettier, and easy to read, I agree. I just wish MS had not completely blown HTML into a monster.

Neither do I - but there's the market: a modern competitive email client has to cover HTML and/or Rich Text. Happyshinyclickycolorish WinXP GUI people want a client that allows HTML so they can use backgrounds, different fonts, smilies gg and whatnot in their mails. ;-) And you I - we both have to deal with an HTML mail one day.

Hello Tony, Tuesday, November 9, 2004, 9:14:44 PM, you wrote: Redirect works even better, it's absolutely identical in every way to the original minus any forward headers. But no matter which you choose, forward or redirect, the original HTML message will *always* be an attachment, and not inline. When you forward a text message, you have the message in the editor (inline); when you forward HTML, you have an attachment. That *may* be OK for forwarding (but there should be an option to choose attach or inline, really), but it definitely is not for redirecting. When I redirect a message I want it to appear exactly as it was, and not as a clumsy .eml or .msg attachment to a plain text mail. -- Best regards, Alexandermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current beta is 3.0.2.6 Rush | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
