Hi Jed,

 

This sounds like an HTML email and the author probably used a table
structure to format the content of the message.  As the recipient, you have
little control over the content in email messages.  Often times, you will
find a link at the top of complex HTML messages that says click here to view
this message in your browser.  Doing so will open up a webpage in your web
browser with the same content as the mail and might present the information
in a way that is easier to navigate and access.  In addition, HTML messages
can often include pictures and sound.  Sometimes these pictures or sounds
are not included in the message itself but are instead downloaded from a Web
server when the e-mail message is opened or previewed.  To help protect your
privacy and security, Outlook is configured by default to not automatically
download pictures and other content from the Internet when you open a
message.  If the author used an HTML table with pictures as the primary
content and did not include any text, the email might present itself just as
you described.  Here is a link to an article from Microsoft that has more
details and discussed how to enable this type of email content:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/block-or-unblock-automatic-pi
cture-downloads-in-email-messages-HP010355038.aspx.  I hope you find this
information helpful.

 

Regards,

Marc

Hey guys,

 

I get some messages that I receive, where I see absolutely no text. I get

some weird stuff in there like it'll say leaving table 1.3.2 shape in line

object this and that.

Any way to get rid of all that nonsense? I could care less what table I'm

in.

Any dieas?

 

Thanks,

Jed
