You cannot read signed messages from Body it will return an error. Check the
message class of the item and if it's a signed or encrypted message skip it.

Hi All, my VB macro in Outlook fails while accessing the body of digitally
signed emails. The following line,

mystring = MailItem.Body

fails giving error pop-up saying "Run-time error '-1040171007 (c2004001)':
The operation failed"

Can somebody pl give me a clue how to get around this ? thanks a bunch !
