The text of emails in two of three of our family yahoo email accts has disappeared leaving just the

The text of the emails appears in my neighbor's computer, but remains disappeared at home. Gmail and one yahoo acct. still shows text. I also cannot send replies from those accts where the disappearing has occured. Antivirus updated and scanned computer with no threats found.



Why? How can I fix it?

In the new Yahoo! Mail, you don鈥檛 do this with your browser anymore. Now, just change your



character encoding setting right in Yahoo! Mail!



Here鈥檚 how:



In the toolbar, click More Actions and select Set Encodings.



From the list that appears, select the encoding that matches the message鈥檚 content.



Note: Only one character encoding set may be viewed at a time. And in this case, changing your



browser鈥檚 encoding setting will not work.



Or in the old Traditional = Select any email where the header information is displayed, but there



is nothing in the



"body" of the message where you would expect to find text, etc.



Move your mouse to the area of the expected "body" of the message and right-click...on



the menu that appears, click on "Encoding"...on the menu that appears, if "Auto Select"



has a check mark, leave it as is...if not click "Auto Select"; then this menu will



disappear...right click again in the "body" to cause the same menu to display again...then



click on "Western European (Windows)"...you should now be able to view the "body" of



all messages that you couldn't view before...obviously, if the problem somehow occurs



again, do the same procedure described above again. I have no idea how or why these



settings get "changed" or "corrupted" after everyday use, but apparently they sometimes



do.
