If you are specifically looking for "please see below" then it's easy to

find that text.

Outlook will rewrite your HTML, and how it's rewritten depends also on what

email editor is being used. If necessary you have to experiment with that

and possibly set up different tests depending on whether or not WordMail is

being used and what version of Outlook the code is running on.

One trick you can use is to get the text without all the HTML tags by

reading the Body property to get the plain text equivalent. That makes it

easier to find the end of the previous message, once you have that you can

search for the equivalent text in the HTMLBody. Then you apply logic that

starts at that position and works backwards or forward to find the enclosing

tags for that section.
