cannot view text on messages from a specific user

[Guest]

I cannot view the body text on messages from a specific user. I have not
made any changes to the Outlook 2007 settings -- this happened suddenly.

Ths body text appears to be a very light yellow. I can highlight the body
text, so it is still there, but it is not visible.

I have just installed Office 2007 and am VERY disappointed with this
egregious example of bloatware!!

Should I just uninstall and go back to Outlook 2003?

I found the problem! However, I can't explain why it only pertained to a
specific user -- changed the mail format to plain text(the setting for
composing and reading was set to light yellow), and this corrected the
problem for this specific sender. I then changed the format back to HTML and
the font color stayed as I had set it, even though the setting under personal
stationery only applied to plain text.

Why did the plain text setting apply to HTML messages and then only for all
messages to and from a specific user?

I am very disappointed with Outlook 2007!!! Too many idiosyncracies like
this one!
