I thought you got lost somewhere - Nice to hear of you. And as far as the civility
level in these groups go, well you have seen it right on the nose. Like everywhere
there are good and bad but the bad far outweighs the good at least in this group.

Well, I guess the civility level of this thread indicates why MS killed its NGs.

As others indicate, for HTML and plain text messages OE uses the IE engine to
display the message. If you use SPY++ you will see the display window for the
messages is an IE window. When selecting the View messages in plain text only,
then OE uses an more Notepad like window to display the text and eliminates the IE
window. That change was made in XP SP2 for "security" purposes.

A simple argument from another poster in 24hoursupport.helpdesk needs to
have his head slapped a little.
His claim is that Outlook Express emails will automatically open in IE
because IE handles html. I have tried to explain to him that OE handles
html emails within itself but he just won't accept this as fact.

I've been in the stupid MS forums. At least I don't have to put up with
those here.
