Strip html tags from imported emails

K

I just imported a bunch of emails from another program. Some look great. But
many have the html text format codes all visible, even though the email
message starts with a clearly defined <html> tag. Does someone know why
Outlook isn't smart enough to either strip tags automatically or better yet,
display message as html? Also, any ideas to help? Am I missing something
here? I searched all the help menus etc.

The mail program that you imported the messages from does not handle HTML
properly. Let me guess...Eudora?

Thanks for your response - Your right -Eudora mbx format created by a neat
java program called Pfc viewer. I had old aol email files in pfc format (i'm
no longer with aol) I wanted imported into Outlook. Any better ideas for
converting aol pfc file to oulook?
