[Dxspider-support] test html problem

Wed Nov 14 10:30:57 GMT 2001

Goodmorning Dirk,

yes, I know... but it's not outlook....
I'm using outlook as a client to our email system at work
which is based on M$ Exchange 2000 servers

My Outlook is configured to send as plain text but
the Exchange server sends external mail as plain text and as html ...
(conversion takes place at server level)

I asked if I could change it but the other guys here don't allow me to
change
it...
It became a huge discussion with open-source/linux people at one side
(me) and the
rest on the other side :-)
Conclusion was that it is standard (M$) procedure... and that all email
programs
nowadays understand html/mime...
and people with outdated software/environments should upgrade :-)))))

typical M$ brainwashing stuff ......

stupid hu...

The problem is that you have got Outlook set to produce both plain and
html versions of your messages. This is the default. It can be changed. 

Here is the body of your message :-

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

------_=_NextPart_001_01C16CEE.8C408A1C
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

this should be "plain text"
