Your mail is being sent as a multi-part MIME file, with both plain and
HTML versions. I don't use Outlook, so I can't tell you how to set it to
text only.

You can't go from plain to HTML; only the other way around. Different
mail clients can be set to handle dual-type messages such as yours
either way. You should also have an option to reply with the same kind
as the original, or to always reply with one specific type.

I don't "hate" HTML email; I just think it's a waste. Sorta like having
fins on a car <g>. (oh jeez, I'm gonna hear it from the classic car
lovers in the crowd!!)
