We recently discovered that when bringing up email with html in the message
on a w2k pc or server, come up blank. Works fine on 98 and below and on XP.
Anyone else have this problem and know how to resolve this.

These are things that aren't really designed to work together. If you
right click on the message and view, is there an attachment? If so view
that.

Also, are you running the latest SP?

It is strange it works on all other operating systems but w2k. We have all
latest updates for I.E. and w2k.... which were done before the GW client was
installed. The attachments are part.000 and mime.822. If right click on
part.000 and view there is text in it but not the html looks and graphics.

Are you saying that a specific mail can be seen OK on one PC and not
the other?

It can be seen on any PC with win98 and below or WinXP but not on any W2k PC
or server.

We found the answer although it gives an error it works. We ran the file
gwhtmus.exe on the w2k pc... it saved a .dll file and gave an error that it
couldn't register, but said it was installed. When going to an email with
html it came up in the email like it is suppose to....

Thanks

Hmm, that is odd. All the problems I know about are with GW versions,
not the OS. Apart from making sure you are on the latest SPs, there's
not much else we can do with discontinued products:-(
