Suppose an MS Outlook user sent me a table from Excel Sheet by pasting it in the body of the mail. I received the mail but the table format is corrupted. There is now no row and column, just the text and zigzagged. Though in the sender end at MS Outlook sent item it looks(table) well and ok.

Any solution for this problem will be appreciated. Thanks

I don't have any MS Office stuff here to check it, but I suspect that when you paste from Excel into Outlook, it embeds some of the original Excel coding. Any recipient using Outlook would see it properly rendered but Thunderbird doesn't know the proprietary coding used in Excel, so cannot recreate what was sent.

If we use something like Libre Office, we find that the spreadsheet part will be encoded into general purpose HTML which will render properly nearly anywhere.

Thanks for the reply...

I just sent myself a bit of Excel using Outlook and it appeared perfectly OK in Thunderbird, so I don't know for sure what's happening.

My Outlook will be set to use HTML specifically to make email messages decipherable in other clients; your correspondents may still be using Microsoft's own RTF or TNEF encoding. :-(

Oh, and I have LookOut installed, which is supposed to help in these cases. Maybe it would help you too.

Edit: running Thunderbird in Safe Mode didn't make any difference, so it's not LookOut doing it.
