Well, actually it is usually the other way around. MSIE is the one not
following specs and causing problems. Especially in the context of this thread,
Outlook/Exchange can cause major problems when sending to Netscape, not because
of anything on the Netscape end but because of Netscape following the Internet
specs & RFC's and MS sending piles of '****' out. As a developer, having to put
in extra hours to help MIS figure out what's happening to our mail and why
parts are not showing up is the last thing I want. Sigh.
For HTML in mail, Netscape has a tendency just to put out "bad style" HTML,
whereas Outlook/Outlook Express actually puts out broken/illegal HTML But that
should be a moot point, as people should post in plain text and attatch images.
(BTW Ian, for Outlook I believe that you need to avoid pasting the images if
you want them not to be inlined. Look for an actual 'attatch' command/menu
item.)
