Extra "garbage" in my received messages

G

Guest

I have Outlook 2002 and have been using it for a few years and haven't had
any problem reading my emails. I just got a new pc and put Outlook on there
and all of a sudden I'm getting all this extra junk in the body of emails
that I'm receiving. They're all forwards where this happens but I've gone
over all my settings and can't seem to find anything different then what it
was before. I'm not sure why this is happening, and it's just so sudden.
I'm pasting what it looks like below. It's going to be quite long but you'll
be able to see the beginning and end with all the junk. Any help in getting
rid of this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

Since these messages are forwards to you, they are created by someone else,
not your machine. Looks like Outlook is showing all the headers of a
message, not just the content, and I don't recall the option in Outlook 02,
but I believe you can set it up to NOT show all this information. Check
your options.

Thanks for the help, but I've searched the Options over and over again and
even compared them to my settings on the other computer where this problem
doesn't occur and I can't find any differences. It has since started
happening on "from scratch" new emails from the same sender. It appears that
the mail is supposed to be read as HTML and Outlook is reading it as plain
text. It won't even keep the attachment when it pulls the message off the
email server. I just upgraded to Outlook 2003 and I was hoping it would make
a difference but it didn't. I have a feeling there's something wrong in my
registry or something like that, unless anyone has any other ideas.

I started having the EXACT same problem when I installed Outlook 2003 on
Windows Vista Ultimate. I have tried out Windows Mail and Thunderbird and
neither of them exhibit the same symptoms. The problem only seems to occur

I have the same problem, and have narrowed it down.

The problem occurs on messages that are sent with ONLY "BCC" addresses.
When I receive the message on my Outlook 2003/XP machine, the TO field shows
"undisclosed recipients", and the message displays correctly. The same
message on the Outlook 2003/Vista HP machine has the TO field empty, and the
message is displayed uninterpreted (with HTML codes showing for HTML
messages, etc.), and with all of the headers displayed.

This is a MAJOR problem with attachments since they come thru inline with
the text, and in an uninterpreted maner that makes it impossible to
reconstruct.
