Well, I've tried all the great suggestions given and nothing has resolved the issue, although I still have yet to find updated video drivers, which I'll do momentarily.
Actually I'm quite disappointed as I thought I had found a great email client for an older computer... maybe mine is just too old! I did discover that it only occurs in plain text mode, which the composer only uses. I have it set to "Rich text/HTML" to read incoming messages and everything looks normal there, but if I change it back to plain text mode, all incoming mail looks just as horrible. -Sue ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
