Microsoft, with all their infinite "wisdom," did not think that a line of text should ever begin with a blank space, hence Outlook Express automatically "moves it to the left" for you. Despite this "bug" and despite a couple of other limitations, I still feel that Outlook Express is the best newsreader and e-mail program available. (For the past half a year or more, PC Computing does too... they've been listing it as #1 on their monthly "A-List" for quite some time now.) K.A.
