Receiving wrong email

[Harv]

In Outlook 2003 I am receiving mail that is addressed to
other people. Most of the time the message is blank but I
am concerned about getting mail from strangers - and it
is supposed to be going to someone else.

Must be some glitch in Outlook - anyone else had this
problem?

Most likely they are using BCC in writing to you making you think that.
BCC= Blind Carbon Copy, You can you this feature it is very nice when
sending mail to a lot of addresses and worried about giving someone else's
e-mail address to someone that should not have it. I am not sure if outlook
express has it but I know regular outlook does.

Absolutely Nothing to do with Outlook.

Mail arrived from the internet into your mailbox. That's how internet
mail works. Nothing to do with Outlook. Outlook just download it. Unless
you recognise the senders, it probably is just spam and should be
deleted without opening. If you open it, you may be sending a signal to
the spammers that your email address is "good" and hence worthly of
selling to other spammers, attracting yet more spam.

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.
