OL 2003 - Receiving MIME Messages

S

sctvoice

Hello,

I recently began receiving e-mails from a Listserv group that is work
related. Unfortunately, some messages are arriving with the MIME
message below:


-----
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=__Part4D6FD98F.0__="


This is a MIME message. If you are reading this text, you may want to
consider changing to a mail reader or gateway that understands how to
properly handle MIME multipart messages.

How can I set up Outlook 2003 to translate these e-mails?


Thanks,


SCT

You don't show enough of the headers to figure out the problem. Outlook
2003 is certainly MIME-aware.

Brian,

Let's try this:

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="=__Part4D6FD98F.0__="

This is a MIME message. If you are reading this text, you may want to
consider changing to a mail reader or gateway that understands how to
properly handle MIME multipart messages.

--=__Part4D6FD98F.0__=
Content-Type: application/msword; name="CJIS Legislation Jan06.doc"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="CJIS Legislation Jan06.doc"

After this I have what appears to be machine code. Thanks.

The SMTP headers that are prior to the message body also play a role. I can
see nothing wrong in the headers you posted.
