Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
The problem occurs on messages that are sent to me with ONLY "BCC" addresses.
When I receive the message on my Outlook 2003/XP machine, the TO field shows "undisclosed recipients", and the message displays correctly. The same message on the Outlook 2003/Vista HP machine has the TO field empty, and the message is displayed uninterpreted (with HTML codes showing for HTML messages, etc.), and with all of the headers displayed. This is a MAJOR problem with attachments since they come thru inline with the text, and in an uninterpreted maner that makes it impossible to reconstruct. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

-----Don't abuse the suggestion feature for general issues-----
What account type are you using? If you have a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook disable this integration and redownload the message. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- "JSmith" wrote in message ...

Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
I am using a standard (non admin) account.
I am using Norton Internet Securiy 2007 (version 10.3.0.12). I didn't see any settings that directly referred to email, but I turned off "auto protect" and resent the message. It still appears with the visible headers. FWIW, another standard account on the same machine also receives this type of messages with the headers visible.

Uninstall the invasive Norton Internet Security. Download and install either
the free AVG Anti-virus from or the AVAST anti-virus program. When you uninstall Norton, the Windows Firewall will be activated, assuming that you have Service Pack 2 installed. You do have SP2 installed don't you? "JSmith" wrote in message ... I am using a standard (non admin) account. I am using Norton Internet Securiy 2007 (version 10.3.0.12).

Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
I am having this EXACT same problem.
Outlook 2003 on Vista, when receiving emails which were sent using the BCC field (so "undisclosed-recipients" displays in the To: field), the raw email is displayed complete with headers and MIME encoded attachments. This has nothing to do with email scanners, as the Vista machine encountering this problem is running Sophos anti-virus only, and is not performing and email scanning/filtering. The exact same email that was sent BCC'd will display fine on Outlook 2003 running on Windows XP - so it's not an issue with the formatting of the email from the sender, but rather something to do with Vista screwing up Outlook 2003. I've found another thread with others encountering this exact same problem. http://www.zimbra.com/forums/adminis...il-source.html Is there some way to report this to Microsoft and get a hotfix made ? It's really becoming a pain. "JSmith" wrote: The problem occurs on messages that are sent to me with ONLY "BCC" addresses.

Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
Same problem. I even removed my antivirus completely, turned off the firewall
and plugged directly into my non-firewalled cable router to download the message on my vista laptop. My XP w/Office 2003 machine decodes them fine. I use comcast cable, but the issue seems to happen most often from AOL users who send a BCC with an empty TO: field..

Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
Does anybody have a solution to this problem? The company i work for
sends out a weekly e-mail and we have received several complaints from clients that they can't read the email. They only see the source and all clients that complain have OL2003 and vista. Does Microsoft monitor this newsgroup or can we report this issue somewhere else? Jo. On Sep 12, 5:22 pm, Mike2ff99 wrote: Same problem.

Outlook 2003 / Vista bug??
I am having the identical problem.
My setup is as follows: Email is POPed from Gmail.com and Verizon.net. The received emails are OK when residing and viewed from the Gmail and Verizon webmail sites. When POPed by Outlook 2003 HTML is often stripped out and most non-PDF attachments are merged into the body of the email in the form of machine code. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Outlook to no avail. OS = Vista Vista firewall and auto updating are ON Vista spyware and virus protection are OFF Internet Security settings are DEFAULT User account control is ON All MS products have latest updates. Norton Internet Security 10.4.0.13 w/latest updates Disabling NIS does not make a difference. -- JP "JSmith" wrote: The problem occurs on messages that are sent to me with ONLY "BCC" addresses.
