Why does all my text in an e-mail have wiggly blue underlines?


Sounds like you are omitting something very important in your details
(actuall the LACK of details), like which e-mail editor you are using.
My guess is you are using Word so you get whatever spelling and grammer
checkers are included and enabled in Word.

Thanks for your response. I'm using Word 2003 as my e-mail editor. The lines appear through out the entire fairly long e-mail. It seem to happen when I paste something in to a message. Any further ideas?

One other thing. With spelling or grammer errors the underline is green, not
blue.

If you right click on the underlined passages, what options do you get?

Then the [user] problem is with Word, not Outlook. There are newsgroups
for Word, like microsoft.public.word.newusers.

A quick (sort of) search at Microsoft gets to here:

This talks about formatting inconsistencies. Something about
highlighting slight differences in styles, like some being in 11pt and
the rest in 12pt, etc. Maybe that is a pointer to the issue.
