You are posting HTML - just view the email messages source (if your mail
client lets you do that!), or save and view in a text editor.

If you can't find how to switch it off I suggest you get an easier to
use mail client - I find Mozilla nice - or Google for advice on using
your current email client.

I don't have a problem with people using a Windows mail client to post
to this group, but help on using that mail client is definitely
off-topic, especially as your mail cient appears to use the Microsoft
HTML modules - so is probably about as secure as a damp paper bag.

The irony mentioned earlier was Apple's posting in character
Windows-1252 - why would Apple use some hacked together Microsoft
character set, when the Micrsoft software is using an agreed
international standard of long standing (Although I think Windows-1252
is now standardised, leastwise w3 list it as a standard character set,
still seems odd).
