Ack, sorry. It's not HTML mail (there is a very obvious option in Outlook Express to send mail as plain text). But I did install a free Thawte email key into Outlook Express, which I guess is getting attached to all my Outlook emails. Mutt doesn't seem to have a problem with the Outlook Express signatures, though it can't actually read them. They're not PGP, they are S/MIME I beleive. Unfortunately, Outlook can't use (or even *read*) PGP-Signed mail, which is the primary reason I bother to telnet into my BSD machine and read mail through a ssh session. --K To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
