Are you perhaps using SpamKiller? It is known to corrupt messages from
Lotus Notes.

As a work around, you can read the message by looking at the Message
Source (Ctrl-F3). It won't be pretty.

The problem is that a email from particular persons comes into Outlook
express on a brand new Win XP sp 2 laptop when you double click to
open it
there is nothing in the body of the email. If you close it and look at
the
size column you can see that there must be something in it since the
emails
vary but can be up to 12 KB in size.



If you drag the Email onto the desktop and double click it. Then
Outlook
Express happily opens it and displays the whole email, formatting and
everything.



I thought that it might be something to do with the store. So I
re-imported
all the emails back into the account. Now every one of the emails
received
up until the point of the importation can be viewed directly in
Outlook
Express as if there was never a problem. But new emails from these
specific
people still comes up as blank if you try to open them.



The only thing that I think is worth mentioning about it is that the
primary
sender that causes these problems, uses Lotus Notes. So I believe
there is a
formatting issue here between the two emailing methods but I just
can't get
a better work around than copying the emails to the desktop first
before
opening them.



Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
