First of all, Rich-Text does not exist in Outlook any more. Any selection of
Rich-Text results in HTML, which looks nothing like Rich-Text. To see REAL
Rich-Text, see:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnrtfspec/html/rtfspec.asp
Now, under Options, Mail Format, if you choose to compose messages in HTML,
it ignores the setting under the "Internet Format..." button. The HTML is
encapsulated in "winmail.dat" and EVEN MICROSOFT'S OWN OUTLOOK EXPRESS
CANNOT READ THIS FILE!!!
So, you need to select "compose messages in Rich Text," then click the
"Internet Format..." button, then select "Convert to HTML format." Now
Outlook will send formatted messages as type "text/html" instead of stuffing
them into a non-standard winmail.dat files!
