Default trouble with displaying of mhtml content


I realize this has gone viral but if you go back, I asked
Softie, what is the real problem...

The reply is "emails."



What is the real problem? Is it a problem with WM
not displaying emails properly for one user? Or are
these emails you want to save as MHT files and
you have the problem from one user account?


Hi VistaRookie!

First of them: WinMail isn't able to display content of mails in one
user
account / profile anymore.

During my way to find the reason I notice that IE8 also have trouble to

display *.mhtml files. (I suppose exactly the same reason for both
problems.)

No, I don't realize that. It might be, but it is very unclear to me
whether it is an attachment. I think the best indication that it is an
IE problem is that Softie said "If I start IE8 without add-ons by right
click, I'm able to display the problematic *.mhtml files."

I truly don't understand how a MHTML file is a message, not an
attachment,
and not saved to disk. A HTML format message is usually "Content-Type:
text/html".

Hi Sam....

I think you realize by now, that it is not an attachment
that is being opened, rather an email. And it does not
work in WM - in one particular account. And as of the
last post by OP, now a second user account has the
same problem.

OP has thoughts that it might be a virus - so after an
online scan is performed and a malware remover is run,
OP has to come back and discuss exactly what is seen
when a new email is opened. And if the settings I
posted are correct.

It was previously established that the problem exists after the
attachment is saved as a file, so it should be pursued as an IE
problem.

Just a suggestion. Open it up in Notepad or other
text editor and see if you can spot some major
difference in the HTML source code. If you don't
have enough experience to spot bad HTML code
visually, you can use a good MHT file that
works and compare it to one from that account
that is giving you problems.

Thanks for the idea - but all of my tested *.mht(ml) files are

ok.
(They can
be opened at other user profiles, or at other PCs.) No problem

of
specific
content. Even empty files are affected.
