hehehehehe :-) I'm running IE6 preview, which runs fine on my work 2K and
my
home 98, but will not run for love nor money on my 2K laptop....! PCs are
great!

Hmmmmm.... been trying to get a foolproof way of making Outlook
automatically flag them... tried doing things like searching the message
for
DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC but it didn't work..... Ooh, hold on a minute.... the
way Yahoo tags Ts&Cs is different. In HTML messages its "Your use
of Yahoo!
Groups is subject t  the Yahoo! Terms of Service." and in plaintext
its
"Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject t
http://docs.yahoo.com/info/terms/";
- you could write an outlook rule t
automatically flag HTML messages with low priority or something, so you at
least new which ones were going to be a problem...... and possibly not read
them until a later date....! I've tried to get view message source without
opening the actual message, but can't find how to do it in outlook - its
possible in outlook express..... hmmmmm The other option is switching to
digest mode.... I think this is plaintext only, although am prepared to be
wrong!
