I tried altering my default editor to MicroEd and then changing the settings for individual messages with Options/Message Format as you said you did and everything then went beautifully exactly as it should with the message correctly formatted without multiple draft files moving to the Outbox when I hit the "Put letter in Outbox" button. I tried a few variations of coloured text, varying text size and with and without inline pictures. Every combination worked fine. I then changed to the Plain Text (Windows) Editor as my default and once again everything went again fine this time. The same with setting up both the HTML Editor options as default. Whatever the problem was, it has obviously been corrected (for now at least) by swapping the default editor and using the message format option. Subsequent changes of default editor haven't resulted in it reappearing. This could be one of those really annoying problems to track down if it only happens intermittently and not to all users. I will keep my fingers crossed that it will keep working for me, just in case I ever really do want to send HTML mail. Allie, thank you very much for taking so much time to try to emulate the problem. Rich Gregory - thank you for confirming that you have the same problem - at least I know I haven't gone completely senile and wasn't just imagining it. -- Bob Mo®®is Saturday, 18 October 2003 Using The Bat! v2.01 on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.01 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
