Microsoft Office Outlook >> text visible in preview is not in the reading pane

by UiBIZWxmcmljaA » Wed, 12 Oct 2005 08:28:04 GMT

How do I reveal the text that I see in the preview when I open the message in
the reading pane? I've seen this in spam and never worried about trying to
see the text - but now I have someone I know sending messages I cannot see
once it gets past the first two lines in the Preview becasu the text appears
to be in the mesage as something other than the body of the email....

Microsoft Office Outlook >> text visible in preview is not in the reading pane

by Pat Willener » Wed, 12 Oct 2005 15:50:28 GMT

This occurs in multi-part messages, where one part contains the HTML
version, and the other part plain text. Usually - in "normal" messages,
the text should be identical. In spam it is different, most of the time.

To view the complete message with all parts, you have to open the
message, right-click on it, then select View Source.

If you don't want to open the message, you will need some 3rd-party
plug-in that can copy the whole text, including headers, into the
clipboard. Search the web for OLSpamCop for one tool that can do this.
I'm sure there are others.

Does Outlook 2003 have the ability to preview images in the

I'm not referring to HTML emails. When I received a plain
text email with .jpg attachments, Outlook Express was able
to display them directly in the email. I'm wondering if
Outlook 2003 has this option.

Thanks!

6. No text visible in emails, but part text visible in preview pane?

When I preview my email messages I can read the first part of the message, 
but when I open the email the text is not visible anymore. The email is blank!
The problem applies to emails sent to me in rich text and in HTML.
I copied the PST file from a Outlook 2000 version and use it now in Outlook 
(Office) 2003.
I know there is text in the emails because when I load the pst in Outlook 
2000 I can read it all.

It's not being stored there. It's stored in the mailbox/pst-file itself. You
