Now some people write their newsletter in MS Word or WordPad, then copy and paste it into their email program, and send out to their list of subscribers.

But there’s a big problem here. You see, when you create your newsletter in MS Word, there are some automatic characters placed in your text that are not compatible with “plain text” emails.
