Plain text emails

Hi,
I've just upgraded from Outlook XP to Outlook 2003. I need to send all my emails in plain text format, as I send the majority to people on a system that doesn't read anything else correctly.
However, since upgrading, when writing new plain emails the text starts each paragraph with an indent, and I can't find anyway to stop this (this never used to happen). The usual formating commands are not available, since the plain text format doesn't allow this. I am using Word 2003 as my email editor (when using XP I had Word XP set as my email editor).

Also, does anyone know how to stop the line wrap on replies looking odd, where you sometimes have just one word on a line of a reply before starting a new line with more words? I'm sure I never saw that with my old setup...

Thanks,
Calvin

Hi

I am already composing messages in plain text, I just want to know how to get rid of the annoying indent that appears at the start of every paragraph when composing plain text emails without having to manually move the 'first line indent' every time I write an email

Thanks,
Calvin
