Sorry I could respond in timely fashion, been away being .NET ified...
I am not sure if this is the same problem, I am convinced that this problem
was related to OE escaping speech marks in the From: header of an email with
the "\" character.
for example
From: \"Steven Moore\" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
And this was caused by users filling in their name with speech marks around
it, if this is not the case I am not sure. Do you know much about IMAP, if
so what happens if you telnet in and do a fetch bodystructure on the
relevant message? What IMAP error messages do you get?
If that last statement didn't make any sense this might help.
1. locate the offending mailbox (.mbx) file with the relevant message. Find
the relevant message and then in the headers find the UID field (can't
remember the exact header name)
2. telnet to the imap service (port 143)
3. login by typing
1 LOGIN username password<CR>
4. Select the relevant folder
1 SELECT "foldername"<CR>
(replace foldername with the relevant folder or just INBOX for the root)
5. Get the message bodystructure and header replace uidnumber with the
relevant message UID.
1 UID FETCH uidnumber (RFC822.HEADER BODYSTRUCTURE)<CR>
6. Do you get a result, post up the error message to the forum. If you don't
get an error message do the following command.
1 UID FETCH uidnumber (BODY.PEEK[])<CR>
7. This should return the message in it's entirety, this is all that needs
to work for Outook Express to show you the message, so again post up the
error message to the forum.
8. To logout
1 LOGOUT
