Has nothing to do with font color or download issues. ALL of the email is blank, including OLD emails in folders other than the inbox. This client uses pop so unlike imap where there COULD be download issues, these emails reside ONLY on her machine. Anyone have any ideas?? This problem seems to be quite rare! BTW this is Outlook Express and Windows XP.

Look at the bottom of the message. Can you see something like downloading message from server? Maybe the message is taking a long time to download. If someone sends me a message with an attachment, I cant read the message untill the attachment has fully downloaded.
Either that or the sender had their font colour set to white!

no idea but I've got the same thing - a subject, but no body . . . I can save the email out as a txt and read it though?? any ideas? anyone??
I have heaps of space, I've rebooted, I've virus checked . . . I just cant 'see' the body of the message . . I've played with a few options (html ext.) with no effect

I was searching and found this:
Several possible fixes...In OE: Go to Tools>Options>Read>Fonts: Change the default encoding setting
to Western (ISO). And in IE: Delete the Temporary Internet Files, including
all offline content.If that doesn't resolve it:
Go to: Start>Run>Type: regsvr32 inetcomm.dll - Press: Enter.
