Re: Opening my email in outlook express



Hi Brent,

May have missed this, but in Tools, Options, Read tab what is the choice for
reading in Plain Text? Plain Text will put HTML content in an attachment.
Also, clearing Temporary Internet Files may help, particularly if the
attachments begin with "ATT."

1. In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options.

2. On the General tab, click Delete Files, click OK, and then click
OK again.

Hi Tim,
The "Automatically download message when viewing in the Preview Pane" option
is checked as it should be. So is the "Show Preview Pane" in the Layout
options. All the settings that I know of are properly set. This all began
when I updated all of the windows and office security updates. As I keep
messing with, what is happening is it is only allowing emails to be viewed
as
attachments. It doesn't matter if they were already in my folders or if new
emails come through. I have to open all of them as attchments to read.
Talk
about frustrating!
