Long text beings ...

Now when I receive the email in Outlook I get an "!" inserted usually at position 990 and repeated mostly after every 990 chars or 65 chars.
Using Linux on Redhat; on Solaris using mailx this was fine. Using sendmail in order to send html content emails. "!" occurs irrespective of html or text content.
Any ideas,
Thanks
