What's with all the blank lines in emails recieved from Outlook users?

Back when we thought the invention of the QWK offline message reading format was the pinnacle of technology. ;)

Back then... it WAS! :D

Coming back to this ten years later, and it is still not fixed.
If someone sends me a mail from Outlook and I copy and paste the mail text somewhere else, I usually get like four paragraph marks (one of them followed by a non-breaking space) between every single paragraph
Is that because even the guys at Project FixOutlook.org took a bribe with that silly giant poster that Microsoft sent them (instead of fixing Outlook) -- which apparently froze them with a foolish grin instead of moving on with kicking Microsoft's ass?

Edit, JFTR:
I asked if they could make TB! start any editor of your choice, i.e., present the message you were working on as a file for your preferred text editor to work on. That's the way many systems worked back in the Fidonet DOS days.

Shades:
A solution for Outlook? Nope.
But your second request could be solved by visiting this link. Didn't check if it works with Outlook, I try to prevent installation of that software wherever I can.

He's not asking for a solution for Outlook for himself, but for copying and pasting from messages sent to him by an Outlook client if I'm understanding correctly.

I wasn't clear... I meant The Bat!, not Thunderbird.
