The bad luck is, the company has settled for outlook :( . And outlook breaks these emails. I do get an information bar telling me: "Extra line breaks in this message were removed" but I have to click and click again and it's just not working how I like it. This so-called feature is called "Auto Remove Line Breaks" and is enabled by default in Outlook. To disable it follow these steps: * Open Outlook. * On the Tools menu, click Options. * On the Preferences tab, click the E-mail Options button. * Click to clear the "Remove extra line breaks in plain text messages" check box: \\ [{{outlooklinebreaks.jpg}}] \\ * Click OK two times. = Useful Links = http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287816 //This wiki has been made possible by://
