Blank email msgs w/contents as attachments.

Very weird. Can you link images here?

As it were, I receive emails but the contents of said email are made into
two attachments by Windows Mail with duplicate text. One is a standard *.txt
and the other a standard *.htm.

Both files cannot be opened in Windows Mail by just double-clicking them. I
have to manually save the file, then open it to see actual content of the
email that was sent. When I try double-clinking, it says...

"The command failed to execute"

Vista 64 bit, fully updated and I am running no virus protection software
whatsoever (Norton, McAfee, etc).

How do I configure WM to show the email as sent?

Was said email sent by someone who is using MS Outlook and was it a RichText
or HTML message?

Can you open said email when accessing your account via the web-mail page?

Say what?! Next you'll tell us that Automatic Updates is disabled and
you've not been keeping the machine fully-patched.
