I've got a user here, Office 2k3, email via POP, who hs a complaint. When he forwards an email, and adds text to it, the text does not always appear in the preview pane when viewing his Sent Items. When he attempts to re-forward the email, his added text is intact.

I have tried standard searches, but to no avail. Has anyone else encountered this, or have any suggestions?
 
Update:

When I view the source of the HTML formatted email, the following appears before the section that is not showing up.

Code:
<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN 
style="[COLOR=red]DISPLAY: none;[/color] FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Hi 
Chris,<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

This occurs for every single paragraph of added text, now in every instance of a forwarded email.
 
Open the Font dialog box and see if Hidden is checked.

I found another solution that we will be testing out. I am dis-allowing Word as an editor for email files. Other sources seem to have this event only occurring when Word is used as the email editor.
