Linebreaks getting removed???

[BDB]

When using Outlook 2003 if I format an email using the enter
key to force the output into a list, Outlook sometimes joins the
lines making my email look stupid (and gives me this message
'extra line breaks in this message were removed'). It seems to
only do it with lines of a certain length. Is there an option
to stop this? I've set it to compose in Plain Text. I just
want it to do what every other email client does, actually send
and display to the recipient what I typed in. How?

To change that in your client look here: Tools menu > Options > Email
options > Uncheck "Remove extra line breaks in Plain Text messages"

That just fixes it for me, the recipients still see the jumbled
message. Of course they could modify that setting on their end, but
that won't happen. Is that it, is there no real solution to this
problem?

I figured out a work around. If you put in 2 cr's it's won't remove
them (who knows why). Typical MS piece of shit code can't even
handle something as simple as an email message. Grumble.

Send in a format other than Plain Text to 'get around' that setting
