my message is all characters.

Using Outlook 2003, when I receive a message with an encoded excel document,
it comes in as all text and symbols. When the message is downloaded on
another computer it it shows up just fine.

Please explain what you mean by "encoded." Perhaps you mean
encrypted?

I'm sorry, I'm not sure, but in one email it looks like this

-_004_DD8D1E69AB59C248AF7CB3A3A3F73C8722CB5A57FESVRCLMAIL01EX_
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;

boundary="_000_DD8D1E69AB59C248AF7CB3A3A3F73C8722CB5A57FESVRCLMAIL01EX_"

--_000_DD8D1E69AB59C248AF7CB3A3A3F73C8722CB5A57FESVRCLMAIL01EX_
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable


But on another computer, (same email) it shows up a a nice chart.

Thanks for you your help.

Something on the computer with the problem is interfering with the message
in such a way that Outlook can't tell from the headers that the message is
to be rendered. Do you have an antivirus program on this PC that scans
incoming mail? If so, uninstall it and reinstall it without the mail
scanning feature.
