Subject: [Ham-Computers] Outlook 2007 Setting that I Can't Find

My copies of Outlook 2003, 2007 and 2010 all seem to have a default setting
such that 1/4“, 1/2“, :-) and several others automatically get sent as ¼”,
½”. J and etc.  All of the reflectors and probably many of the mail managers
people are using don’t know what to make of these and in the case of
reflectors at least, my reflected copies of the messages come in with other
meaningless characters showing, so I have learned to always trick the
computer into not sending them.  But the tricks are somewhat time consuming.
Several times I have tried to find where to turn this “feature” off, but
without success.  Does anyone know where the setting is hidden?
