snow Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 Loobie is there anyway you can forward the original email to your gmail account and see if they open through that? Might be worth a try .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gooster Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 I fink the penguin has done something which means you can't register with yahoo/hotmail accounts anymore, and as me and Anne found out, it means the archived PMs come through as gobledegook (if at all). Try switching your registered email address on here to your gmail one, and any future archived PMs should come through ok. Don't think that'll help with your current problem though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophie Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Loobie, do you use Windows? If so, I'll send you screen shots going through the steps that I outlined, which should make more sense than my mangled explanation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
