Crazy Outlook removes extra line breaks

One thing that always drives me crazy is that Outlook removes extra line breaks from plain text mails. This is extra clear when someone has made a nice list of items like this:

First do this
Then do this

Then it will look like this when opened:

First do this Then do this

How to disable this "feature":
1. Open Outlook.
2. On the Tools menu, click Options.
3. On the Preferences tab, click the E-mail Options button.
4. Click to clear the Remove extra line breaks in plain text messages check box.
5. Click OK two times.
