Outlook email format messed up? Maybe you need to fix formatting in Outlook. Set default to to Hyperlink Markup Language (HTML), Rich Text Format (RTF) or Plain Text.

I understand that many people don't desire this... but I want my preview pane to show messages in html format, not rich text.Anyone know how to do ...

You configure Outlook to display, view & read all standard mail in plain text, to prevent any malicious script from finding its way to your Windows PC.
