    Moved over to Outlook recently so i can receive email from both Exchange server and Internet (pop) mail.

    However any mail coming through the Internet mail address which is in US-ASCII format, instead of Plain Text or Html, arrives at the inbox blank, with no subject and blank in the body of the email.

    Anybody have any advice (aside from not using Microsoft Outlook)???

    Thanks

    Prolly not related, but did you install the IE6 preview?

    If so, check out this link, MS Knowledge Base article entitled:

    In fact, you might try repairing the Mlang.dll file mentioned in that link, as it seems to be the prime culprit in just about any instance of blank mail bodies that I have found.

    You can use SFC to restore this file. Just make sure you back up the old verson, just in case.
