APPLIES TO

This article was previously published under Q195320

SYMPTOMS

When you send mail using Microsoft Outlook 2000 via a Lotus Notes Domino 4.5 Server, acting as a POP3 Internet e-mail server, mail formatted as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) arrives at the recipient as a plain text message containing the HTML code.

CAUSE

This behavior is caused by a problem in message handling on the Lotus Notes version 4.5 server. You can reproduce the same condition using Outlook Express and Netscape Messenger as clients.

RESOLUTION

Lotus has confirmed this to be a problem in version 4.5 of the Notes server. This problem was corrected in the 4.6 version.
