The only time this doesn't work is if you want to reply to yourself.

When I forward with my Desktop Outlook or an exchange rule, which is the same email box on my Mogul, the txt msg still shows up as a Picture Mail from an unknown person/number, even if i send it as plain text, forcing me to open the web page to read the reply. If I let the msg come to my exchange box then i can read the plain txt without having to go to sprints web site. However, it appears that if you send an MMS to another Mogul user their replies will also come back as wanting you to open the web page.

Oh okay, I get it. Yeah, when you reply via Mogul, it will shoot an email to your exchange account, yeah? Thing is, exchange 2003 can't do HTML via mogul. I dunno about Exchange 2007, never used it. So it does everything in hyperlinks. Maybe that's what's happening? Sprint's reply interface automatically adds all of its HTML crap, even if plain text. I have forwarded set up on GMail, but leave the message on the GMail server. That way I can just read plain text messages when they are sent from other carriers, and GMail does HTML too.

I've got an Exchange 2007 box I can test with and set it up to receive HTML. Can't do HTML with Exchange 2003 I'll test it out tomorrow if I get time. I plan on doing a no2Chem 5055 upgrade tomorrow and will have to reconfig email accounts anyways.

BTW...just forwarded to my POP account with HTML support and I can read the message without going to the web page.
