I have the same issue. Outlook help is not helping and all Options do not
contain any switches for this. Anybody?

When I forward a message but need to edit the text in the body of the message
(the message in the forwarded email) OL automatically places an extra space
before the inserted text. I tried putting it right next to the previous
word, but then I have an extra trailing space.

I am using OL 2003. Messages are composed in HTML .

Any ideas of why this is happening and how to fix it?
