Changing Microsoft Outlook to Work with Mailing List

Microsoft Outlook by default create heavily decorated emails by using html.  These things don't work on internet mailing lists because they cause problems when searching in email archives.  Here's what you can change within Microsoft Outlook to work better with the mailing list.
