Unexpected Outlook NormalEmail.dotm behavior

[myronschroner]

With Outlook 2007 closed, delete NormalEmail.dotm. Then open Outlook
and close it so that it will create a new NormalEmail.dotm.
Open NormalEmail.dotm to edit it, and change to format of style
Heading1 to have a bullet. Save, exit, open outlook, open new
message. The bullet doesn't appear as part of Heading1.
If you try changing NormalEmail.dotm to include other types of
formatting (bold, space before, etc), it will work fine, showing that
it is possible to format default emails. It's just not possible to
format them with bullets (or multi-level lists).

Does anyone have more luck with this than I did? If it's broken, any
way to report it to MS?

Thanks!

Myron

No need to post more than once.

Makes sense... but the two posts were for different things...

Thanks for reviewing, though. Any comments?
