| | Re: Blank Email Body on some Sent Mail - Windows Vista That is a very rare symptom. I believe you are only the 9th person to report this problem in the 16 months I've been active here. We don't know what the cause is, or how to fix it. You can try upgrading to Windows Live Mail: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP "katie farias" <katiefarias@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:eOj15Dm0IHA.1628@xxxxxx Quote: > When sending or forwarding emails to (3) of my many contact, using Windows mail and I have Vista as my operating system, in the > last month these contacts who's providers are all three different ISP's have started getting the following in the body of their > emails with nothing else?

| | Re: Blank Email Body on some Sent Mail - Windows Vista I had my options set to notify me when a read receipt was requested and I did not receive this notification with these emails. Do you believe this was still the problem? In the meantime, I downloaded Windows Live Mail. I ended up with two email accounts, one Comcast (larrybecker1) (Default Account) and the other comcast.net. All properties are identical except the server port numbers and security. The first has default numbers of 25 for SMTP and 110 for POP3 without requiring a secure connection. The second one has 587 for SMTP and 995 for SSL and requires a secure connection. Should I delete the latter account? "Gary VanderMolen" wrote: Quote: > Go to Tools, Options, Receipts.

| | Re: Blank Email Body on some Sent Mail - Windows Vista I don't know what was causing the blank replies, if it wasn't some part of the 'read receipt function. You did well to move on to Windows Live Mail. As for your two Comcast accounts, it sounds like neither has the correct settings. Comcast has shifted from port 25 to port 587 for SMTP, but their POP server is still on port 110 (no SSL), not port 995. The complete settings are documented here: http://www.comcast.com/Customers/FAQ...s.ashx?Id=2288 -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Larry Becker" <LarryBecker@xxxxxx> wrote in message news  F1EFF4C-7B00-43B7-AB34-D00F4B848796@xxxxxxQuote: >I had my options set to notify me when a read receipt was requested and I did > not receive this notification with these emails.
