I have to say ¡Firedog seems to be the only person with an explanation for this problem. I have also started having the same issue reported for Windows Live Mail 2012 by Colenbrander, in that emails received from a specific sender (Skype Customer Service) have an invisible message body. I also have IE 11 on a Windows 7 64 bit system. Windows Live Mail 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308), will not display anything in the message body for emails sent from Skype Customer Service, of all things. Since Microsoft now owns Skype, this is particularly troubling. I can read the emails on my android phone, and on Outlook 2007, but my default client is Windows Live Mail. If I reply to the blank message, the text becomes visible. If I go to options and select "Read all messages in plain text", it becomes visible. This behavior is a pain, and is the exact same thing reported in the prior question. I can see I am not the only person experiencing the issue, but it also seems that nothing has been posted as a solution. If it's the result of XML markup handling by Windows Live Mail and it's messages from Skype doing it, shouldn't Microsoft be able to provide a fix? How about changing the problematic XML generated by the Skype system and use something that works in their email client? I appreciate ¡Firedog for his thoughtful explanations. I jumped that thread a bit, but I would really like a solution to be posted that doesn't result in a total rebuild of either my OS or email client when it's a self-induced problem with two Microsoft products. I am following up my jump with this question. Is there a solution that corrects the behavior without resorting to reading all emails in plain text or blindly replying to blank message bodies?
Thanks,
