if you try to type your own message or try to type in Notepad with the CourierNew font, are they also jumbled?

Thanx for reply,

my Outlook does not have the courier font. It is on incoming mail;. When I type "repy to sender" of message it is in my veranda font.

Another software question that should be posted in Windows forum. Look at your View, encoding settings in the garbled email and change to a diff encoding.

sorry to keep the thread going but... It sounds like your courier font is missing. Download the font here: http://www.mytempdir.com/1068399 - look carefully

Extract the files to C:\windows\Fonts.

Thanx for reply. The font Courier New is in my Windows font list. Downloded your suggestion and it didn't help,

Open OE.

Click on Tools, goto "Options">Read>Fonts. in the Fonts Settings Box... what is selected? it should be selected to Western Europe. (This is the encoding as suggested above).
