I dont know why it's taken me almost 3 years to ask, but here i go.

A lot of the emails I send out at work are "delivery confirmations".


So basically I'll reply to all from an older email and only change a couple things. I'll delete the old email information and alter the rest.

However, when you change the characters, Outlook ALWAYS changes the font color (default blue and arial font) and adds weird spaces and does whatever it feels like.

this pisses me off something fierce.

how do i change this setting/feature?

 

Install Thunderbird

/problem

 

tools/options, mail format, stationery and fonts

 

i cant install anything on these work computers, so im stuck with what we got.

spanky, i dont see anything under stationery that would stop the automatic formatting?

 

change the "replying or forwarding messages" font color and make sure "mark my comments with" and "pick a new color when replying or formatting" is unchecked.

 

Spankdu is right. I changed my reply/fwd format from default blue to my typical default black.

 

i'll give this a shot. so this will also stop outlook from adding spaces and whatever too?

 

Spaces are because you are typing in html format, but it sends as rich text.
