From: Eddie on 3 Jun 2010 10:57 Check the box next to "Mark my comments with:" and delete everything in the text field. Then uncheck the box. Viola! Works in Outlook 2003, which I have. Try checking the box first and deleting everything in the text field. Interesting what Outlook inserts. Should be "[]" before the inserted text in the email message. Good luck.

This only happens when replying to HTML email, no problem with plain text. Also, when I edit the original sender's text it is in blue arial font regardless of what font & color the original email was formatted in. I am using OL 2003 SP2. Many others are having this same problem. I've seen the question asked on several forums but nobody has been able to provide a solution. Can anyone help?

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "trying to insert the initials?" I think this can be turned off because it just recently started happening in the last couple of months.
