auto-completing "yours truly"

How can I stop Outlook from writing "truly" when I type "Yours"?

I would never, EVER say "yours truly". I usually just type Yours, or for
more formal correspondence I would use faithfully/sincerely depending on the
name.

But Outlook insists on this foul phrase and I can find no way to stop it,
even though I have turned off all Auto Correct options.

it's not one of the autocomplete options AFAIK - that will convert your to
you're though.

what version of outlook and if 2003 or earlier, are you using word as your
editor?

Hi Diane,

Thank you for your reply.

I am using Outlook 2003 SP 2, part of Microsoft Office Professional Edition
2003.

I don't think I am using Word as my editor. I have set everything to Plain
Text wherever possible since I don't like HTML or Rich Text emails.
