[rt-users] Help with CommandByEmail

Mon Mar 11 15:37:08 EDT 2013

Hi,

Yeah and there seems to be no way to make Sharpoint stop sending html...  So I need some help with the stripping of the tags somehow.

Thank you,

Is your mail client sending text/plain and an html alternative while
sharepoint is sending just HTML?  That'd be the first thing I looked
at since I bet CommandByMail isn't stripping HTML tags before looking
for commands.
