Replying to Emails

[Clayton]

When I am replying to emails with images in the message body it takes ages
for the reply box to come up so I can type a message

Are they linked images so they have to go to some server host out on the
Internet to retrieve them?

 

[Clayton]

Yes, the main photo links to a website, it quick going to the site when I
click on it though

Oh, I also see alot of little images saying "NEW" and "MORE" I guess that's
why it taking so long? how do I reply without these images?

Set Outlook to reply in plain-text mode (i.e., disregard the original format
of the e-mail). If you need to switch to HTML mode, you can do that under
the Format menu when composing an e-mail.

Carn't seem to find that setting

That's because there is no such setting. Outlook, by default, ALWAYS
replies in the same format as the original message.

Damn. Thought Outlook had it. Must've been in another e-mail program.
Well, Outlook has it but maybe you don't want to read all message in
plain-text format.

For OL2002, it's a registry edit. For OL2003, I believe there is an option.
You can set Outlook to read all mails in plain-text format regardless of how
they were originally encoded. When you reply, the reply will also be in
plain-text mode. So you lose reading any HTML-formatted e-mails rendered as
HTML documents and so everything read is in plain-text mode in order to
force all replies to be plain-text, too. You may just let Outlook reply in
the same format as was used for the original mail, and then use the Format
menu to switch to plain-text mode.
