|| I'm switching from MS Outlook Express to Outlook and am having
|| trouble doing a few of the things I was used to doing in Express.
|| One example, switching email message format to RTF or Plain text.
|| The online help says to go to Tools/Options and the Mail Format tab.
|| There's no mail format tab. How do I do this?

| I don't know how the Options sub-menues are set up in any version of
| Outlook except Outlook 2003, which DOES contain a "Mail Format" tab
| (right between "Mail Setup" and "Spelling").
|
| Anyway, to set RTF or Plain Text format in Outlook 2003,
| 1) Click on "Tools" in the Menu Bar
| 2) Click on "Options"
| 3) When the Options dialog comes up, click on the "Mail Format" tab
| 4) On the "Mail Format" page,
| a) Next to "Compose in this font", select "Rich Text" or
| "Plain Text" from the pull-down list.
| 5) Click on "Ok" to dismiss the Options dialog and save your settings.
