subject line in outlook2003

[Guest]

When sending a message with a subjectline such a eg "subject: this is a
test", correspondent (even my own address) receives only "his is a tets". The
first character in the subjectline is LOST? Any idea?

Many mail programs interpret the : as a delimiter between a prefix like RE: or FW: and the real subject. Avoid using it. Instead, use something like Subject - This is a Test.
