Message Headers in message body ??

Guest

Hi, I have a client that uses Outlook 2003. This is setup for POP3 mail,
retrieving messages from a BSD Server. Occasionally and seemingly pattern
less messages arrive with the From To and CC field blank with all the header
information in the body of the message. I am struggling to see if this is an
Outlook issue or infact how this would happen. Any thoughts?
Many thanks for your help
Johan

I have a similar problem. I have a computer that has Vista Home Premium and
Office 2003 installed.

Some emails the user receive are not decoded properly, ie HTML emails show
as code, attachments appear inline as characters, basically not in thier
proper MIME format.

As the Administrator I also have a copy of these incoming emails, I am using
Windows XP Pro and Office 2003. The emails decode properly for me, no
problems at all.

Something interesting that I would like to point out is that when the user
gets a improperly decoded email, he gives me a call, and I find it in my
Admin account and forward it to him, and it always shows up fine as a
forwarded email.

I also have dowloaded the emails using my personal Vista Ultimate, Office
2007 computer, with no problems at all, it seems to only be an issue found in
a combination of Vista/Office 2003.

I have found some posts on the internet from users with the same issue, all
with Vista/2003. any help or direction would be appreciated.

I will let you know how I get on. In my case its already XP/Office 2003 I am
going to set up a similar thing to you so I get copies of his messages to
check teh format. The message goes through Message Labs first so I was even
wondering if it was one of their systems causing it.
