incoming email format

Postby kaipo3 » Sun Jul 25, 2010 9:03 am

Some emails I receive, that are in HTML format, are changed to plain text.
The infobar doesn't tell me that it is changed but I get all of the header information and any pictures have been removed.
How do I get Outlook to not change those emails?

This kind of problem might be caused by anti virus (AV) software. First try to disable email scanning (only) in your AV software.
This is the best signature ever!

This is happening on two different computers running two different anti-virus software but the same emails are affected.
I'll try turning off my email scanner on one of the computers and see if it makes any difference.

Turning of the email scan on my anti-virus program didn't make any difference.
Any other suggestions?

Can you check Tools, Trust Center, Email Security to see whether 'read all messages as plain text' is checked?
Is this happening to all mail or do you ever receive HTML?

"Read all emails as plain text" is not checked.
I get most of my emails in HTML format.

when does this change actually happen? when they get into your inbox or when you hit reply?

When they get in my inbox.
If I go to the online website and look at the email, it is fine.
When I open Outlook and it downloads it into the inbox it is changed.

Is your MS Outlook fully patched with the latest Microsoft Service Packs? What version of Outlook are you running?

There must be some conversion going on between the server and your Outlook - a would blame AV soft.
What AntiVirus program do you have?
There was a number of similar cases with AVG involved.
The solution to them was:
- Open AVG.
- Click Tools and select Advanced Settings.
- Select E-mail Scanner.
- Unselect Certify e-mail.
Let us know how it worked for you.
