outlook 2003 on vista wont receive email correctly from thunbird

It only happens to two computers that have the Vista OS. Using 0utlook 2003
as an email client. When ever receiving an email from a thunderbird client
it show this:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html>
<head> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000099"> <font size="-1"><font
face="Verdana">To "fix" issues around JavaScript the infamous Microsoft
approach seems to apply with certain users/clients.<br> Switch JavaScript off
and it will not bother you anymore ... wrong approach in my humble opinion,
but well we have to deal with it when your page relies on JavaScript.<br>
<br> So how can we "catch" </font></font><font size="-1"><font
face="Verdana">JavaScript</font></font><font size="-1"><font
face="Verdana">-disabled-clients?<br>

What can I do to fix this? Any help is appreciated.

Don't send HTML messages from Thunderbird. Use plain text.

Also, It only happens when they send a message to multiple people. It works
fine when they just send one to me.

Clearly Thunderbird is sending HTML even when you think it is sending plain
text if you still see HTML in the message.
