Has Anyone Seen My Rich Text Formatting?

I was working on some MIME work for a project and I must have done something to effect how rich text is being built but I don’t remember. All the MIME code is gone but now when I try and send an eMail via an agent, the body field is losing the rich text formatting and my Rich Text Tables are coming out like this:

	|-------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+--------------+------------+------------>

|UW Office |Business |Account Type|Account Name|UW Name |Assigned To |Agency Name |Eff Date |Policy # |TIV |Premium |

| |Type | | | | | | | | | |

|-------------±-----------±-----------±-----------±-----------±-----------±-----------±-----------±-------------±-----------±----------->

------------±-----------|

|Coverage |Ind Segment |

------------±-----------|

Any ideas?

When I debug my code i can see that throughout the script, the RichTextItem.type is 1, so it never becomes a MIME object, before or after I send the document as an eMail. The document as saved in a database shows the rich text table correctly. It’s only the eMailed doc that isn’t coming thorugh right.

The body field on the saved document:

Field Name: Body

Data Type: Rich Text

Data Length: 30718 bytes

Seq Num: 1

Dup Item ID: 0

Field Flags: SIGN SEAL

The body field on the emailed version of the saved doc:

Field Name: Body

Data Type: MIME Part

Data Length: 74 bytes

Seq Num: 1

Dup Item ID: 0

Field Flags: SIGN SEAL

"Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII

Sounds like either your server is set to send plain text mail to internet users. Take a look at this setting in the configuration document for your mail server. If it is set to “from Notes to Plain Text”, you have your explanation.

Ben,

You’re right about the setting. That makes sense. Now I can investigate the real problem: why I’m receiving mail as if I was an internet user.

Thanks
