I should have said plain text, that's what I meant. Holdover terminology from the DOS days.
Nat >>>>>> Although I usually prefer plain text, I certainly don't prefer ASCII, as it's a 7-bit code and can't handle accented characters and a number of other characters, such as �. These days, I format for Unicode (UTF-8) whenever I reply. (In Outlook 2000, it's Format>Encoding>Unicode (UTF-8).)
