the previous file format, but it uses international characters that
can be read by versions of Outlook that use different languages.

•HTML (*.htm or *.html): This saves a message in a file format that
can be displayed using a web browser (such as Internet Explorer

files (such as Word). File attachments aren’t saved, but the
message formatting is kept. In addition to saving a copy of a message

that an additional folder isn’t created. Applications that can
display HTM and HTML files should also be able to display MHT files.
