Why are meeting requests showing up scrambled / plain text?

I have been receiving meeting requests in Outlook 2007 and they never show up
properly. They show up in plain text and are completely scrambled and
illegible. I don't know why they are showing this way? It used to be that
this only happened from outside emails, but it's now an issue when I get
emails from inside the company as well. I have the feeling that this is a
setting issue or the way my outlook was set up. But how do I change it?
Thanks!

Plain text means they are losing the TNEF encoding in transit.  This happens
often with POP accounts - outlook may strip it when sending to the internet.

I have a similar issue. When I receive an emailed caledar request from
Outlook 2003 or 2007 some come through intact and some come through as
text. For example I got 4 calendar requests from the same Outlook 2007
user sent together and received together(using POP3 in Outlook). 1 was
OK and the other 3 were text. The OK one looks to be a similar
appointment event (all scheduleing kids sports games) and was received
in between the others that were text. There doesn't appear to be any
rhyme nor reason to why/when as is suggested in some of the responses
I have seen to this issue...

Any information would be great!

Thanks!
