How about trying to live up to your own advice and sending some
plain-text instead of that garbage...  :-P #$%&

Here's what some people see:

What are the appropriate settings to view ASCII using Outlook Express,
I've tried changing fonts, etc... but all The Ascii is jumbled together.

I also looked over the FAQ but couldn't find anything there about it either.

Thanks,
Dan

I went into the dejanews powersearch (

posts about this problem.
