What OE settings should I use?

 

 

Using the correct settings will enable you to easily acquire the images and sounds from a post that you admire (see "How do I save the individual pieces, the graphics and sounds?"). It is also important that you do not resend the original message with your reply.

Within OE, go to Tools|Options|Send. Uncheck "reply to messages using the format in which they were sent". Set both your News Sending Format and Mail Sending Format to plain text.



  Next, make certain that Source Edit is checked under View. Hit the New Post button.  Format|Rich Text (Html) Pull down the View menu and verify that Source Edit is checked. This will display the Edit, Source and Preview tabs at the bottom of your Rich Text message.    

Note: OE must be set as your default mail program. Go to Tools, Options and at the bottom of the General screen there is a button to click to make it your default.
