How using Microsoft Outlook can ruin your birthday cake
There are some bakeries that allow you to send personalized messages, to be placed in your birthday cake, by e-mail. A lady in NY found this idea very appealing and ordered a birthday cake over email. But as it turned out, the result was not the expected:
The problem seems to be have been caused by the fact that she used Microsoft Outlook to send her email but Wegman’s email system failed to recognize the proprietary HTML tags of Outlook and caused this oddly-looking cake.
But the funniest part is the explanation of the bakery's employee: "we just cut and paste from the email to the program we use for printing the edible images, we are usually in such a hurry that we really don’t have time to check. and if we do the customers yell at us for bothering them."

ROTFLOL!
The problem doesn't seem to be in Outlook as the supposed "proprietary tags" are in fact valid HTML comments... the problem was Wegman’s client.. maybe Thunderbird?
Still, it's a nice cake! ;)
All in all some time ago I had similar problems and used this tool-opening ost files,because tool had helped my friend,also it has free status,utiltiy restore all your contacts, emails, meetings and tasks are typically stored on server,permit to open *.ost files and convert them into *.pst files, that can be opened by any program, compatible with Microsoft Outlook email client,allows opening ost files and to store your personal data independently from Microsoft Exchange Server, it is very important, if you'd like to access your contacts and email archive from outside of your company,can extract the files in *.vcf, *.eml and *.txt formats.
