I just checked on a blank message re the font etc. If I right click the
message I don't get the option to Select All, only Synonyms, Translante and
View Source. I tried Ctrl+A and that selects just one space in top left of
the message.

Don't quite know how to check on the color of the font but if I choose to
edit the message, anything I type comes out black on white background.

Everytime I send an email to one particular person I always get back
a reply from him a few seconds later with the same subject but
nothing in the message. He uses Outlook 2007 and it looks like some
setting on there needs adjusting to prevent this happening.

Any idea how to do this?

One thing that can cause this is scanning messages with an antivirus
scanner. Both you and he should uninstall your AV programs and reinstall
them without the mail scanning feature to see if that changes anything.
You might also want to check the font to see if it's set to the same color
as the background. RIght-click in the body of the seemingly blank message
and choose Select All. Does anything appear?
