I spend a lot of time sending mail to Outlook users, too, but it all just says this: If you are reading this, it means that you sent me an email saying that you can't read my emails. The short answer to why not is: Your mailer is broken. This is your problem, not mine. File a bug report with the vendor. I'm going to continue signing my mail, and if you don't change your end of things, you're going to continue having problems reading it. In some cases (you're cute, my mom, or you're offering sufficient reasons per hour), I'll make exceptions, but this is on a case-by-case basis, and I'm intentionally leaving it as a PITA manual process so that each of us is reminded it's a bad idea: me, when I do it, you, when I forget and you're stuck with unreadable mail from me. GET A REAL MAILER. No, this isn't a virus, a bomb, a bug, a worm, or any other executable code. And if it is, that's your problem, not mine. If your IT or MIS department is brain-dead enough to actually strip off these attachments before you get your mail, I'm going to laugh at you in public. Sorry, this ain't the sympathy department.
