I have a problem - all the messages that I send with outlook express 5.5 arrive at the recepients as code text, so the MIME headers and all are displayed in the recepient's message window and also, the To: line reads "undisclosed-recepients" even though i put the email address simply in the to-line.
I really don't know what's going on ... anyone else knows?

Is it with all receipients or a certain one? If it is sjut a certain receipient their mail application maynot be able to hande html.

If it is everyone have you tried using plain text instead of HTML? I would try this first to see if the problem is a setting with your application or something else. joegz

thanks for trying to help me...
First of all, I've upgraded to outlook exchange 6, but that doesn't help.
Secondly, yes, all recepients have the same problem
Thirdly, it's still the same when I use text format.

Here's what the recepient receives:

Problem solved!
It seems to have been the virus scanner ... probably some setting there - when I uninstalled the virus scanner (quick heal) the message appeared correct again...
