Hello:

Is there a way to eliminate an extra return inserted in outgoing messages, for example:

If my message looks like this in Outlook:
----------------------------------------

Hello:

This is Mickey

If will look like this when received:
------------------------------------

Hello:



This is Mickey

Thanks for any tip that will resolve this invisible return

Mickey
 
Try formatting you mail in rich text...or plain text or html...I think you'll need to run a few tests using each of these options.
Outlook-tools-options-mailformat.

Hi Kippy13:

Yes... Rich text or Plain text does remove the extra return but loses formatting like bold face, fnt size and colors. HTML maintains it but the returns.......?

Any suggestion?

Thanks
Mickey
 
I knew I had come across this before-
thread68-743221
I never got any feed back from the user on the workaround-sadly I think the work around only works for ths signature.
Let me know if it helps. As there is no other way.

So what are you using now to edit the message and that will also get rid of the rich text option....
