in thread Creating Outlook Voting buttons in an email

Thanks for the idea, but when I just tried that, I don't see anything in the header about the buttons. In fact, I can't see anything about the header at all - it's blank. I can see email headers when there's no voting buttons, but when there are buttons, the header is empty. That's bizarre. Oh well. Thanks anyway.

    I just tried sending a message with a yes/no button on it to a POP account. It ended up with these headers:

    X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.0.6249.0
content-class: urn:content-classes:message

    TNEF is apparently Transport Neutral Encoding Format and the X-MS- prefix implies Microsoft proprietary extensions, but I can't see anything in these headers that shouts out 'Yes/No Voting Button'. :-(

      What a drag. Thank you very much for checking that out. I would be content with simply adding a couple of HTML style buttons to the email message (it's an HTML email message anyway) that would result in sending separate emails once you click on either one. Time for a Google search... Thanks again!
