Hi, I have the current version of thunderbird, 2.0.0.12, and various emails 
sent to me show no content except an attachment even though text shows in 
the popup new mail notifier.  The emails are typiclly from automated 
services such as boardgamegeek new content informing, but also password 
change requests from various websites.  These have included trillian so that 
I can reactivate my chat engine.

Can anyone suggest a fix, with easy steps as I have limited computer 
experience.

Please email me on psychman27@hotmail.com

thanks

If you activate 'Display attachment Inline ' option in 'View' menu and 
also choose View > View Message Body As > 'Original Html' , can you see
