html tags not interpreted

Guest

Hi,

I am sending email from unix to my pc and trying to read it from MS Outlook
2002.

The text of the email message is as following:

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html charset = us-ascii
<html>
Test Email
</html>

and I was expecting to see only "Test Email" in my email. But I am seeing
everything. What I am doing wrong and how can I get desired effect. My format
menu is almost entirely grayed out and I am using Word as my email editor.

It sounds like the program you used to create the mail message didn't do a particularly good job on constructing the separate MIME parts.
