Hi

This is probably embarrassing easy to solve but I cant do it and it has
stopped me using outlook until I can this problem solved - :)

When I receive emails into outlook - if the email is formatted - the format
is lost. If the email has a picture - instead of showing the picture it
shows the address of where the jpg or gif file address.

Its making emails extremely hard to read and I cant figure out what I must
of ticked/unticked to get them like this as i have checked the options and
cant do it.

Anybody help me with this?

Ta

Mike

Is this Outlook 2003? Is there an "infobar" at the top of the message that
says "Click here to download pictures"? If so, you can click the link to
temporarily download the HTML stuff (you'll be asked if you want to save the
changes when you try to go to another message), or you can either add the
sender to the Safe Senders list or globally turn off the security for HTML
messages.

Hi

I am using outlook 2003

I am receiving this problem with ALL my emails into outlook - I cant see an
infobar at the top of the messages except for the one that says extra line
breaks in this message were removed - click to restore

There is some 'global' option that I need to do but cant figure out.

If any one can help you it be really appreciated

Can exchange telephone numbers if it can be fixed while i'm on the other
line - that be ideal but anything as I have had to revert back to using
express until this problem gets sorted.

OK, then go to Tools | Options | E-mail Options and make sure the box for
"Read all standard mail in plain text" is NOT checked.
