=2E or =3D inserted into emails

[Paul H]

Hi,

I have a Vaio laptop running XP, and I use Outlook. My outlook font settings are all to Arial and i don't use word as the editor.

When I compose an email and send it the text is fine, but the recipient gets the text in a different font, with =2E and =3D liberally sprinked through it. On inspection it looks like where there should be a fullstop or hyphen I get an =2E, but this isn't guaranteed.

Some emails work fine.

I use a vodafone 3G/GPRS card to connect most of the time.

Any ideas - its driving me crackers.

Thanks

Paul
