When I send an e-mail (Hotmail) through Firefox that I have created and pasted from MS Word, it looks just fine on the e-mail ready-to-send screen but after it is sent and I check it in sent mail, there appears triple or quadruple spacing between paragraphs (even though the document in Word (and on the to-be-sent screen) was single-spaced with only double spacing between paragraphs. 

    How can I eliminate the excess spacing?

Thanks.

If you paste HTML code then you can check the source code to see what exactly is pasted. Word may be adding extra <P> tags or other code that is causing it.
