This isn't specifically HP related, but rather a bit of info regarding
the internet in general and microsoft exchange in particular.
First off, thanks to all who took a moment to respond to my "warning"
that the format might be a bit unusual... Based on those responses, I
think I've determined the proper settings to avoid such an ugly mess in
the future (and if I'm right, this message will prove or disprove those
assumptions... :) )
In exhange, it is somewhat easier to "import" e-mail addresses than it
is/was with msmail for windows. Msmail has an "all or nothing" approach,
but it seems to get everything even if you select nothing... :) [there
is a global setting that says "import addresses into personal address
book", which I think takes action whenever you reply to something,
although it appears to be capturing things received as well] Under
exchange, if you select and double-click an address in the FROM or TO
fields, you now have a seperate button to import the address shown.
Depending on how and where the address gets imported, there MAY be a
check-box labeled "always send to this recipient in Microsoft Exchange
rich text format" and defaults to true. (I found some addresses where
this option didn't show up at all, kind of hard to set or un-set
something if the option isn't given :) ) For this message, I've
un-checked the option in the address book, therefore this should not
attempt to send the message in "rich text" (which is what I presume the
base-64 encoded block of data was that followed the original portion of
my message)
The unfortunate thing about the internet and e-mail is that the more
advanced it gets, the less legible everything becomes. While this
provides an appearent opportunity to bash Unix, the truth of the matter
is that the original MAIL program is perfectly suited to what it does,
but nobody seems to want to use a "plain" e-mail package. While I might
be happy using Robelle's Xpress program (only slightly fancier than MAIL,
and in fact the interfacing between Xpress and the Internet is trivial),
I like the organizational abilities of Exchange much more than Xpress,
despite the hoops I have to jump through to get an Exchange message to
look good to everyone else. Given enough time, energy, and resources to
"check out" every e-mail package, I'm sure I'll find one that exceeds
Exchange's abilities by as much as Exchange exceeds Xpress
[tongue-twister intended not].
Till next time,
Tom Emerson
