When I try to forward an email - half the page is filled with all junk code & data that would only be of interest to a techie for reasons that I have no idea about. If you forward an email in outlook, the automatic data that is put on top of the email is : sender, recipient, subject and date.

Please help. Its also difficult to delete some of these junk lines because the rows are still there when the text is deleted - very, very time consuming and irritating!!

Thank you if you help how to automatically not have the unnecessary stuff appear on your forwarded mail.

Thank you Airmail - so simple a solution!!!

Wish I had asked this question long ago instead of putting up wasting time to delete certain lines which took ages.

So much time wasted before but NO MORE NOW!

THANK YOU SO MUCH
