Alright, this thing is really pissing me off and I'd like to see if you guys can help me out with it.

Whenever I'm in Outlook 2003 (using Word 2003 as the default text editor), when I try and copy and paste the text in an email into notepad, I get an auto double spacing. The email text I was copying from is not double scpaed, but when I paste it, it will double space everything. WTH is that all about? I'm pretty sure it is a Word problem as Outlook is using Word 2003 to edit the email, but I've gone through every little option in Word and can't find what is causing this.

Anyone else run into this and if so, have you been able to correct it?

I've seen this happen when we've created a signature in Outlook and someone sends a plain text email and we reply, the signature is double spaced. I went back in to everyone's signature, deleted the return at the end of the line, and hit CTRL+ENTER for a single carriage return. I know this probably doesn't help you, but it may give you some ideas
