Are you sending plain-text messages or HTML-formatted messages? E-mail applications cannot always handle HTML-formatted messages from different E-mail applications. This is especially true when the HTML does not comply with the W3C specifications. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Concerned about someone (e.g., the government) snooping into your E-mail?
