Use the Both MIME Option

When you select the MIME option of Both, a plain text and HTML version are generated in a MIME multi-part alternative message. If a user cannot read one format, the other is available.

Important   When you select the MIME option of Both, you cannot select the UUEncode or Microsoft Exchange rich-text format options.

1. Start Active Directory Users and Computers
   On the Start menu, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and then click Active Directory Users and Computers.
2. In Active Directory Users and Computers, on the View menu, click Advanced Features.
3. In the console tree, expand the Windows 2000 domain. Double-click Users, or double-click the node that contains the recipient information you want to modify.
4. In the details pane, double-click the mailbox-enabled user you are configuring POP3 settings for.
5. On the Exchange Advanced tab, click Protocol Settings.
6. In the Protocols dialog box, select POP3, and then click Settings.
7. In the POP3 Protocol Details dialog box, select the Enable for mailbox check box, and then click to clear the Use protocol defaults check box.
8. To display received messages as both plain text and HTML, under Message encoding, select MIME, and then select Both.
9. In the Default character set drop-down list, select a character set.
