[WEB4LIB] Microsoft Outlook and dots...

[Knuth, Pat KNUTHP]

Robin,

.I can't seem to reproduce your experience. (unless this line repeats after
it leaves my mail system.)  I'm using Outlook 98.  What version of Outlook
are you using.

I'm sure some of you have noticed this, but I've yet to see an official
statement about it.

If you start a line of text in Outlook with a period, the line gets
repeated.


For example:
.this line has a period to start it
.this line has a period to start it


Does anyone know if Microsoft knows or cares?

Thanks

Robin
