 Alternatively, a default domain name ('''`smtp_default_domain`''') can be set in the TracIni file (see [#ConfigurationOptions Configuration Options] below). In this case, the default domain will be appended to the username, which can be useful for an "Intranet" kind of installation.
+
+When using apache and mod_kerb for authentication against Kerberos / Active Directory, usernames take the form ('''`username@EXAMPLE.LOCAL`'''). To avoid this being interpreted as an email address, add the Kerberos domain to  ('''`ignore_domains`''').

  * '''`use_public_cc`''': (''since 0.10'') Addresses in To: (owner, reporter) and Cc: lists are visible by all recipients (default is ''Bcc:'' - hidden copy).
  * '''`use_short_addr`''': (''since 0.10'') Enable delivery of notifications to addresses that do not contain a domain (i.e. do not end with ''@<domain.com>'').This option is useful for intranets, where the SMTP server can handle local addresses and map the username/login to a local mailbox. See also `smtp_default_domain`. Do not use this option with a public SMTP server. 
- * '''`mime_encoding`''': (''since 0.10'') E-mail notifications are always sent in 7-bit mode. This option allows to select the MIME encoding scheme. Supported values:
-   * `base64`: default value, works with any kind of content. May cause some issues with touchy anti-spam/anti-virus engines.
-   * `qp` or `quoted-printable`: best for european languages (more compact than base64), not recommended for non-ASCII text (less compact than base64)
-   * `none`: no encoding. Use with plain english only (ASCII). E-mails with non-ASCII chars won't be delivered.

+== Customizing e-mail content for MS Outlook ==
+
+Out-of-the-box, MS Outlook normally presents plain text e-mails with a variable-width font; the ticket properties table will most certainly look like a mess in MS Outlook. This can be fixed with some customization of the [#Customizingthee-mailcontent e-mail template].
+
+Replace the following second row in the template:
+{{{
+$ticket_props
+}}}
+
+with this instead:
+{{{
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+{% with
+   pv = [(a[0].strip(), a[1].strip()) for a in [b.split(':') for b in
+         [c.strip() for c in 
+          ticket_props.replace('|', '\n').splitlines()[1:-1]] if ':' in b]];
+   sel = ['Reporter', 'Owner', 'Type', 'Status', 'Priority', 'Milestone', 
+          'Component', 'Severity', 'Resolution', 'Keywords'] %}\
+${'\n'.join('%s\t%s' % (format(p[0]+':', ' <12'), p[1]) for p in pv if p[0] in sel)}
+{% end %}\
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+}}}
+
+The table of ticket properties is replaced with a list of a selection of the properties. A tab character separates the name and value in such a way that most people should find this more pleasing than the default table, when using MS Outlook.

+However, it's not as perfect as an HTML formatted e-mail would be, but presented ticket properties are at least readable...
