Hi, Starquest321.

There is no option for stripping HTML in any version of Outlook.  The closest I think you can get is to run some code that converts the messages to plain-text format.

Do you have a code like that available that you can share with me? But remember I just want to do it when a specific rule is applied. . .

Add this code to any module in Outlook's VB editor. &nbsp;Change your rule to run this macro. &nbsp;It will check each message that meets the rule's conditions. &nbsp;If the message is in HTML format, then it will change it to plain-text format.<br />
<br />
Sub ChangeBodyFormat(Item As MailItem)<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; If Item.BodyFormat = olFormatHTML Then<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Item.BodyFormat = olFormatPlain<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Item.Save<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; End If<br />
End Sub

What do you mean by module? <br />
This is excellent - just exactly what I was looking for!
