Outlook Burped and HTML Format Now Shows
JTLaBelle 12/29/2008 3:56:01 PM
Suddenly, HTML formatting is showing on my Outlook new mail messages composed
with HTML. How can I delete this without having to resort to plain text
emails?

Is it showing on messages you receive or messages you compose? If when you compose, does Alt+F9 hide it?

If messages you receive, what version of outlook? version of windows? do you have all the latest updates installed?

HTML markings appear in all MS Outlook 2007 emails I compose; Alt+F9 has
absolutely no effect on the message being composed. However, when I check in
messages sent, there are no HTML markings.

I use Microsoft Outlook 2007 and not Outlook Express, and I am using
WindowsXP with all updates installed that will install.

I did not say the recipients of my emails see HTML markings, I said I see
them when I compose my email messages. However, when I check messages sent
in MY Outlook, there are no HTML markings on the messages there. The
markings appear when I COMPOSE an email post not when one is received or when
I check my SENT file. Alt+9 does NOT remove the HTML marking. This is
something I can learn to live with if I have to, but it is annoying. To my
knowledge I did NOTHING myself to start HTML markings showing. I did run
diagnostic checks on my Outlook after I had done the usual "when in doubt
reboot" on both Outlook and my computer itself. I have not run a system
restore

Ctrl+Shift+8 did the trick! I had seen a post that said Ctril+Alt+* that of
course did not work because it had Alt instead of Shift. It took a while,
but we finally got to the solution of my problem. If at first you don't
succeed, don't give up. . . .

Thanks for sticking with me!
