Sent mail arrives scrambled

Hi can anyone helpme with a problem I am having with Pegasus Mail 4.50 PB1. Some of the emails I am sending and their attachments are arriving at their destinations scrambled.

This is a small example: > <html  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en"><head>
> <title></title>
Perhaps I have a setting wrong

Cheers

Richard

 Looks like you are sending HTML with the "Rich text" not selected so it's going out as plain text. Try the following format options:

1.  Tools | Options | Sending mail, uncheck "Send attachments as separate messages" and "Enable text file autodetection when
    sending attachments". Check "Don't add 'attachment information' sections to Multipart messages", and "Generate
    multipart/alternative versions of richtext messages" 

2.  Tools | Options | Messages and replies check "Use MIME features"

3.  Tools | Options | Message formatting uncheck everything under "Formatting and use of styling in messages"
