[TowerTalk] TT problem

[Bill Putney]

While we're on the subject, I don't know much about Outlook but is there a way
to tell it not to have the body text of the message be a MIME text type
attachment instead of having the text actually in the message. The only people
I see this from are those who are using Outlook.

I've seen this more and more on the reflectors and most times I don't bother to
open them. I'm sure I'm missing some good stuff but I go through a lot of
messages everyday and opening all these text attachments is just an extra time
consuming step.
