RESOLUTION ========== To resolve this problem, perform one of the following two procedures: - In the Exchange Administrator program: 1. Go to Properties of the Internet Mail Service. 2. Select the Internal Mail tab. 3. Under Message Content Information, choose Interoperability. 4. In the Send Microsoft Exchange Rich Text Formatting box, select Always. -or- - In the Exchange client: 1. Choose Tools, Address Book. 2. Go to File, New Entry, and select Internet Address. 3. Select the check box for Always Send to This Recipient in Microsoft Exchange Rich-text Format.
