Multi-part MIME formatted e-mail

Whenever I receive an e-mail from an Exchange server that is in multi-part MIME format, I get the header and the HTML code in the body. Worse, any attachment may also be discarded.

I'm using the Outlook 2003 client on MS Vista with all service packs and updates installed. All options are set to read and send HTML.

A search of the Microsoft Knowledge Bank reveals that service pack 3 is set to allow 50 embedded MIMEs before dumping the headers to the body, but I don't think this applies to my situation.

As to settings in Outlook:
I don't think there is a nook or cranny in Outlook I haven't checked at least 3 times. I'm ready to just set Outlook to convert everything to plain text and be done with it.

I don't have an answer for you. In fact, I'm stumped too. I just wanted to let you know that you don't need to repost for someone to bump it back to the top. Just reply to the original with the word "bump" in the title.

If a more challenging title would get more attention from the email-orientated crowd.

I had actually thought about just posting "Keep Alive " to some Questions, but I never actually found it necessary.

Your reply is definitely clue-ing me in as to the possible intractability of the problem though! Thanks.
