Format in email body

I cannot find anything about the following behavior:
A user at our company is getting a line-by-line formatting 'description
column' on the left side of his email body field. This seems to happen on a
reply. The composing format is Plain Text. Switching to HTML causes this
'sidebar' to disappear, but switching back to Plain Text reveals the
formatting annotation.

The annotation is repeated for each newline/carriage return, and in this
case says 'Plain Text'. These annotations are separated from the message
body by a vertical line. (I am describing it b/c i don't know what the jargon
name is...)

Does anyone know how this got there? Would this possibly affect the
spell-checking functionality? And what in the blazes is this called?

Thanks.
 
Chipito,

Sounds like you are using Word as your email editor and you are in Normal
view. To fix it, when you're in your email message, click Tools, Options,
View. At the bottom of the View tab, change your Style Area Width to 0".
