Re: TXT or HTML? -- IE NEW BUG

If anyone is interested, I think I have a real answer on this. Another list member sent me to the following URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/workshop/networking/monik er/overview/appendix_a.asp This page explains the process in detail. Another member pointed out that on IE 5.1 for the Mac OS X, the behavior is very different (everything works as expected except text is shown as HTML). But as the above URL explains, IE uses a Win32 API function for this, which probably isn't available under OS X. Hope this clarifies the situation for those interested.
