Actually, joe, I think you're spot on. The only time I don't view emails
in Outlook as Courier New 10pt is when i open a message with PGP, in which
case it looks like an arial-type font. I can't control this from Outlook
or the PGP email options.
Truthfully, to me it makes sense that PGP wouldn't support HTML email.
You might be out of luck. But, I'd search
