Hi, Everyone.
Primary question:
Is there a way in which to adjust paragraph spacing (termed "leading" in
the publishing world) on outgoing messages such that when a recipient
who uses Outlook attempts to reply, all of his replies aren't forced
into double spacing between paragraphs?
Background and detail:
When I send an HTML e-mail in The Bat, a recipient who reads it in
Outlook will see, in terms of formatting, exactly what I sent. However,
if the recipient hits "reply," all of the line breaks become double line
breaks. This can be annoying, particularly to someone who works/reads
quickly, and doesn't want to waste time scrolling down any more than he
has to. In order to avoid this, I must either send the message in plain
text, or the recipient must reply in plain text. Is there a setting
that can be changed so that when the recipient chooses to reply, s/he
will not have to deal with an extra long message caused by this magical
shift from single to double line breaks once the "reply" button.
I am not sure that this is a problem with The Bat, so much as it is a
problem with Outlook. However, I use Outlook (NOT Outlook Express) at
the office (from where this message is sent) and cannot find a setting
that would cause the spacing to increase between paragraphs when a
message is replied to. Any ideas?
