Outlook Express Message Format

[BLUE SKY THINKER]

Can anyone enlighten me why Outlook Express messages sometime (not always) turn up in the following format: all arrows and gaps.....

(example)

>>> HANDLE IT.
>>>
>>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> Confidentiality and Disclaimer: This email and its attachments are
>> intended for the addressee
>>
>> only and may be confidential or the subject of legal privilege.
>>
>> If this email and its attachments have come to you in error you must
>> take no action based on

>> them, nor must you copy them, distribute them or show them to anyone.
>> Please contact the sender to notify them of the error.
>>
>> This email and any attached files have been scanned for the presence of
>> computer viruses.
>>
>> However, you are advised that you open any attachments at your own
>> risk.
>>

Thanks.
