Robert, Do you have any suggestions on a mungling of text in these emails? Do you see any problems with me randomly mungling the text?
that sounds like a good idea it's not the content but the structure that's important in fact, odd content is more likely to turn up subtle issues than standard stuff I took a sample of emails with different types of content (forwarding,
replies, some with threads, some embedding images, etc...). I would have selected more if I could have depersonalized some of the emails, and already the ones I picked out I'm having second thoughts about. I guess the irony or point in fact as it were is that the most screwed up Outlook emails are from friends and family who are not technically savvy. I don't think I could make up this bad formatting myself.
yeh: i found myself thinking the same random munging sounds like a very good idea to me - robert
