Default Recieving meeting requests as plain text

Currently I can send meeting requests and they are recieved in the correct
format. However, upon recieving the requests from another user they are
recieved in plain text format. Exchange server is not used. I am confused as
to why this is continuously happening I have checked all options, I cannot
find the setting that states "all messages recieved as plain text" Is this
option available in Office XP (2002)???? Any and all help would be
appreciated. I can be reached via email @ if you have
an urgent issue.

How would you go about verifying that all users are sending rtf or
html messages? I thought that I did and everything was good but I
should check it again.


Have them open your contact record on their machine and double-click the
email address. Examine the "Internet format" drop-down.

I verified that the contacts are sending as "Outlook RTF" format. However is there another setting in outlook 2002 (XP) that could be defaulting the recieving to plain text?

Well, Rich Text is certainly not HTML. Have your sender change the Internet
Format to "Let Outlook decide the best sending format". This will allow the
Format menu on the compose window to control the sending format without
overriding it.
