Multipart MIME in Outlook 2010

[WyomingKnott]

I get multipart MIME messages. In outlook 2010, they look like this:
Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
boundary="_000_SN1PR15MB02079A5D51FB185F70DD0AFAC8960SN1PR15MB0207namp_"

Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

They also contain HTML, which shows as HTML source code. Can anyone tell me how to see these properly in Outlook 2010? Is there a plugin? Do I have to upgrade to Office 365?

Thanks.

You would often see such "attachments" when someone sent a message with a digital signature on it (like from a CAC/smart card). There is a S/MIME plug-in for Outlook and Outlook Web Access that can be loaded. However, if you don't have a corresponding digital signature device, I don't think you'll be able to "read" the info.

One (of many) causes is mail sent by Thunderbird and Lotus Notes clients where the "To:" line is left blank when the "BCC:" line is in use. The only fix in these cases is to have the sender resend with a non blank "To:" line.
