No - I use OE about half the time, and it's just fine, if you do:
Tools/Options/Send/News Sending Format - check Plain Text.
Let the 'Plain Text Settings' default, unless you know why you might
want to change them :-)
If you are on OE6, and you download the very latest version, you can
have a compliant (dash dash space) signature separator for the first
time.
If you are using OE, turn off the preview pane and/or keep your virus
checker absolutely bang up to date.
I also cannot recommend highly enough a little product called
OE-Quotefix, an add-on to OE that makes it quote properly, optionally
viewable in colour, puts your sig in the right place, and a zillion
other things M$ should have done... there's even a sig-compliance patch
for earlier OEs than 6.
Free, though the author will be grateful for donations (but does not nag
about this)

If you use Outlook (not Outlook Express), there is a Quote-Fix for that
too, though it's not as nifty as the OE one.
