Hi Fred,
     I'm using Thunderbird which like Ed's is configured to send both 
text and html. Like Ed said there is potentially an issue at your end or 
Rahul's end, as further to what you are seeing when I replied to your 
mail Thunderbird actually generated 2 responses, which I've never seen 
it do before. Relative to those characters in the history, in the first 
line under Rahul's salutation, the first 3 extraneous characters are 
where I have inserted a Tab, the other instances in that text are just 
Spaces, so something is doing a horrible translation.

regards,
Steve
