Receiving MIME

[paul]

Received email in mime format has the "html" component as
an attachment. Outlook displays the "text" portion.
Clicking on the attachment displays it in IE.

Is there any way to get Outlook to display the HTML
message as intended?

What version of Outlook? Outlook 97 cannot render HTML, only the later
clients.

Thanks, in a roundabout way. Your reply says "After
searching google.groups.com (sic) and finding no answer,
paul asked...."

So I did search http://groups.google.com and found:

http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-
8&newwindow=1&safe=off&threadm=%23O9tuW9BDHA.2044%

2540TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl%26rnum%3D4

which states, along with a really good technical
discussion, that "the problem is that Outlook doesn't
comply to the standards that other MUA's follow while
creating a message".

Could the issue discussed in this article be my problem?

Other http://groups.google.com posts talk about setting
(undescribed) security options/features to resolve similar
problems. Could this be my problem? What are the correct
settings if so?
