So much Windows Mailer crap on this list...

[Angelo Sonnesso]

It is easier then you would think.
When you respond to a message in Outlook express the reply address is
automatically placed in the address book.
You go in to the address book go to the address you want.
Press enter.
Press ctrl-tab once.
Press shift-tab until you come to a box that says "send as plain text.
Hit the space bar to check the box.
Press tab once and press the space bar, or the enter key and you are done.
