When I forward html email, for some reason it isn¹t displayed properly when
sending or when received. The recipient gets an email with a bunch of
source code and a bunch of links. Is there a way to correct this in
Entourage so that emails are received as desired? Thanks.

There is. When you hit Forward, you're telling Entourage to recompose the
message in its own HTML creation engine. However, that engine is far from
efficient, which is why the result is very poor. To bypass this mechanism,
select a message, then click on Message>Forward as Attachment; that way,
Entourage will attach the message and leave the source code intact.

I have a rule that forwards selected messages to my wife. The choices for
forwarding in the rules menu don't include Forward as Attachment. Is there
any way of making that option available?

Thanks

You would have to do this with a script, which can be run from a mail rule.
Here is a script such as you could use:

set tempDirectory to (path to temporary items from user domain) as Unicode
text
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set themessage to item 1 of (get current messages)
set filename to my cleanCharacters(subject of themessage & " - " & time
sent of themessage) as text
save themessage in tempDirectory & filename
set newMsg to make outgoing message at end of folder id 2 ¬
with properties {subject:"forwarded emails", ¬
to recipients:"My Wife <myWife@myCompany.com>", ¬
content:"This mesage forwarded automatically" & return & return, ¬
attachment:alias (tempDirectory & filename)}
send newMsg
end tell

on cleanCharacters(theText)
set characterSets to {{"/", "-"}, {"\"", ""}, {"\\", "-"}, {":", ""}}
repeat with aSet in characterSets
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to item 1 of aSet
set theText to text items of theText
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to item 2 of aSet
set theText to theText as Unicode text
end repeat
return theText
end cleanCharacters

Save the script as a compiled script & put it in the ?Entourage Script Menu
Items¹ folder in your ?Microsoft User Data¹ folder. The script can be
manually run from the menu or called as an action in a mail rule.

Yes, I saw this same fix somewhere else. However, is there any way
then, once the email has been attached, to have the email go out such
that the attachment is "encoded" -- I guess that's the word -- and the
email shows up at the other end displayed rather than with just an
attached file? I realize I can just type in text that says "see
attachment," but I've noticed that in Entourage attached images are
often displayed after whatever text has been typed in (but curiously,
not always).

Or, is this a client-side issue? I've looked for some setting to force
it to display attached images or html in the email body, but didn't
find anything.

Finally, will Entourage with the new Office Mac (2008?) have this
resolved so it handles html like almost all other email clients do,
now?

It is a client-side issue. The e-mail client will decide if it can display
.eml messages inline; if it can't, it will show them as attachments. I
believe both Entourage and Apple Mail can display .eml attachments inline.

Microsoft has not released any specific information about this, so you'll
need to wait either for an official announcement or the release of Office
2008 in January.

In the case of Entourage, this is correct. However, I believe attached
e-mails with "complex HTML" will only display in "simple HTML" unless the
attached message is opened in its own window.

Michel:
I have the same problem as Doug Jenik. When I forward the daily NY
Times summary, a .com promotional email (e.g., Hammacher Schlemmer),
or any image intensive email, the message turns to raw HTML code,
losing all formats and images.

Surprisingly, it did not work this way for the first nine months I
owned my Mac, only since mid-summer 2007. Before that, I could
forward HTML emails nicely, with no loss of graphics. Is this
corrected in a newer versions of Mac Office?

(My Powerbook is running OSX 10.4.11 with Entourage 2004 Version
11.3.6)

Is my only hope sending as attachments?

Entourage has always been this way, nothing changed in the summer. It's
possible the nature of your newsletters changed.

As I'm sure has been said, you want to Forward as Attachment rather than
just Forward.
