Hi, Thank you for your prompt response. Your comments make sense but any idea why it disrupts the incoming message formatting as well? The received message should be seen exactly as it was sent with same formatting, shouldn't it? If we receive mail having table, borders are gone even if sender sent table with borders. If we want to write something in the table while replying then we have to set the table border manually. And sometimes it doesn't even recognize as a table and hence we can't do any table formatting.
Can anyone guide me how to improve html and rich text formatting support in evolution? Thanks, Ruchir Brahmbhatt Director Ecosmob Technologies Pvt.

Making Evo understand every kind of document out there and obey its formatting rules is something way beyond its spec. This kind of thing works (up to a point) in Windows, because of the underlying OLE model, but there's nothing comparable in the Unix/Linux world. The way to pass random documents around is via attachments. poc
