How do I get rid of the HTML commands in my messages

[Guest]

There is no adderess in the from or to header, and the message is full of
commands making it hard to read. How do I change the way an incomming
message is displayed in outlook.

Typically, this is a sign that the HTML was malformed when it arrived.

While the From header is supposedly required by RFC, it really isn't.
The From header is just part of the *data* of the message sent during
the DATA command from the e-mail client to the SMTP server. The RCPT-TO
commands are used to specify who are the recipients of the e-mail (an
aggregate list of recipients is collated from the To, Cc, and Bcc
*fields* within your e-mail program that then sends out a RCPT-TO
command for each recipient to the mail server). That the body of the
e-mail appears to be riddled with HTML tags means the sender screwed up
in composing their HTML-formatted e-mail. So why do you really want to
read that spam?
