For most HTML formats, click on Tools in Windows Mail, then Options,
then Read. If there is a check mark in the box before Read all messages
in plain text, click on this box and then Apply. Click on OK.
For messages using the RTF format from Outlook, you will have to install
Outlook (not Outlook Express), version 2003 or later. Version 2002 also
runs but with a few problems.
If it's a problem with finding a decoder for some of the ways of encoding
attachments, show us the first few lines of the code and maybe someone
can suggest a decoder to try.
