Anybody! Help! Quite often when I send a return reply to both people and to forums, hotmail will send it out in HTML code and it'll get refused (by the forum) and drive my friends mad. How do I handle this?

Yours,
Dan Anderson

Unfortunately, I'm not a hotmail user so can't be of specific help.

However, in general terms, this is a setting somewhere in your preferences or may be an available setting in each e-mail.

Check your preferences (wherever they are in hotmail) and look for something like "Send as HTML" or "Send as Plain Text"

Hope that helps.

Folks,
I went to find any kind of "preferences" box and there was none. there was, however, a tools button on the reply page. In that section was a "rich text editor on or off." So I turned it off and sent a reply message to eskrima digest, which ALWAYS gets returned because of the HTML content. It hasn't come back yet so I think my problem is fixed.

Yay!

Yup. That should hopefully do it.
