========================================================================
[19]  The ASCII Art Rough-Guide to m$.Outlook?
========================================================================
      Microsoft's Outlook Express program has a number of flaws,
including
      * deleting spaces from the beginning of lines, and
      * inserting the word `file://' in unexpected places
      which make it very difficult to send ASCII art properly. Whether
      these are bugs or features we don't know, but we do know that
      Microsoft would rather ASCII art as a medium just disappeared (see

http://cgi.pathfinder.com/time/digital/daily/0,2822,13735,00.html
      for more information). A registry patch to fix some of the flaws
      in Outlook Express is available from the ADA.

That link is no longer correct, but I would like to read the article.
