Whenever I forward a message to another email address, the recipient finds multiple "?" characters appearing in place of my spaces. I'm using Rogers.com which in turn uses Yahoo as its email provider, and I've heard that this could be a Yahoo originated problem. Can anybody throw light on this situation? Thanks, Dave.

If you're sending through a Yahoo (ATT, Rogers, Verizon etc.) type server and your recipients see unwanted ??, double-click mail.strictly_mime to true in Tools/Options/Advanced/General/Config. editor to enforce Quoted Printable encoding (Outlook default).
