If
1) I receive an HTML-formatted message with a stationery background from an
OE6 sender, AND
2) I reply to it and I change the formatting from "Rich Text (HTML)" to
"Plain Text"

Then, the name of the stationery background that was present in the original
message is added to my outbound message in the first few bytes. For example,
if I receive the original email with the "Clear Day" background style, and I
compose a plaintext reply message that begins "Thanks Tom for...", the
message actually received by Tom begins "Clear DayThanks Tom for...".

While composing the reply, I do not see the extra text. But it is visible in
the copy in my Sent folder, and, of course, Tom gets it, too.

How can I stop this?

This is a known bug.
I don't know any way to stop it.

Is there a KB article describing this? I've tried seasrching for such, but
never found any. Is MS aware of the problem? Any prognosis for a fix?

Thanks for your quick reply.

No KB article and I wouldn't hold my breath for a fix. Either reply in the
format that the message was sent, or delete the original message.

Like Bruce, I don't know of any KB article.
I would be very, very surprised if it were to be fixed.

That is because the name of the Stationery was placed in the Header section
under TITLE I think it is. Other than just deleting it, you can remove it
by going into the Source tab of the HTML message and remove it there but
it's easier to delete it from the plain text.

Nothing else you can do.

Thanks for the insight, but I cannot delete it from the plain text since the
bug is not visible while I'm composing the reply.

Then the other option applies.
