I would be willing to bet you are emailing this from your office, and
they are not using MS-Exchange Server for Internet email transfer.
MS-Mail Server and other NT-Server Based SMTP gateways send this file.
It contains formatting info, so that if you are sending to another
compatible emailer, your mail will be formatted exactly the same as
you sent it (ie: bold, font type and size, etc).   There is a registry
setting that can turn this off, or the simple but more expensive
solution is to upgrade to Exchange Server, which gives you the option
to turn it on/off.
