problem sending mail to outlook
i'm a avid fan of making the output of my scripts look pretty. so as a result i put in my scripts a lot of lines that are formed by either ****** or =======

now, outlook seems to have a problem with that. it always removes something that it calls "line breakers" from the emails my scripts send out thereby causing the output to look ugly in outlook.

now, how do i fix this? what can add to my script to stop outlook from acting like this?

i already unchecked the "remove line breaker" option in outlook. and it worked, but when someone else replies to email containing the scritp output, its back to being garbled. (since that person hasn't unchecked their "remove line breaker" option. i cant expect everyone in the company to do this which is why i need something to fix my script with)

startpar

STARTPAR(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       STARTPAR(8)

NAME

       startpar - start runlevel scripts in parallel

SYNOPSIS

       startpar [-p par] [-i iorate] [-t timeout] [-T global_timeout] [-a arg] prg1 prg2 ...
       startpar [-p par] [-i iorate] [-t timeout] [-T global_timeout] -M [ boot|start|stop]

DESCRIPTION

       startpar  is  used  to run multiple run-level scripts in parallel.  The degree of parallelism on one CPU can be set with the -p option, the
       default is full parallelism. An argument to all of the scripts can be provided with the -a option.  Processes blocked by pending  I/O  will
       cause  new  process  creation  to be weighted by the iorate factor 800.	To change this factor the option -i can be used to specify another
       value.  The amount weight=(nblockedxiorate)/1000 will be subtracted from the total number  of  processes  which	could  be  started,  where
       nblocked is the number of processes currently blocked by pending I/O.

       The  output  of	each  script is buffered and written when the script exits, so output lines of different scripts won't mix. You can modify
       this behaviour by setting a timeout.

       The timeout set with the -t option is used as buffer timeout. If the output buffer of a script is not empty and the last output was timeout
       seconds ago, startpar will flush the buffer.

       The  -T option timeout works more globally. If no output is printed for more than global_timeout seconds, startpar will flush the buffer of
       the script with the oldest output. Afterwards it will only print output of this script until it is finished.

       The -M option switches startpar into a make(1) like behaviour.  This option takes three different arguments:  boot,  start,  and  stop  for
       reading .depend.boot or .depend.start or .depend.stop respectively in the directory /etc/init.d/.  By scanning the boot and runlevel direc-
       tories in /etc/init.d/ it then executes the appropriate scripts in parallel.

FILES

       /etc/init.d/.depend.boot
       /etc/init.d/.depend.start
       /etc/init.d/.depend.stop
