WEIRD! I would not even open it...just delete it from the inbox. Doesn't sound good. It doesn't say the email they are from?

nope does not say who they are from, and I get them all the time, at least 2 times a day. I opened one and it was blank, so I deleted. I opened one at work ( can do my emails from work) and it was blank to. so when I check my email and there is the envelope there and no subject I now delete. but I wonder who is doing this? i thin I will be calling my provider and getting the new email addy.

Its someone trying to do a bounce test. If there is no box to go into, it bounces back as undeliverable. Its how they find new emails to spam. Then they put it on a list and give it out for a price.

Or at least that's what I assume it is. Just delete.

Just make sure you do a virus scan, to make sure they didnt send anything.

Karla, on the righthand side it should tell you how big the file is...are they empty...or are they large, I have had some...that are huge, but no sender, no subject...I don't even touch them, I just deleat (I am always worried about viruses and stuff)

I was getting them a lot for awhile, but they have stopped now...

I wish the emails I get were blank. I get 8 to 10 emails every day that are junk: viagra (various spellings), pharmacy (various spellings), erections (hey, I'm a girl) and other crap. I'd change my email but too many people have it and it would be a chore to let them all know my new address.

But another way to check your mail is to go to mail2web.com. Click on "secure login" and then enter your email address and password (it is safe and secure). You then can see all your emails in your inbox. Then you have the opportunity to delete any you do not want. I do this all the time, keeping them out of my inbox which means I don't accidently open them.

I occasionally get e-mails in the micechat e-mail that says "This document contains no text elements." I have the person forward it to another e-mail... definitely plenty of text there.

Karla, I can't prove it, but I think Tui's responsible.

Re: Blank emails, been getting them everyday, anyone else?

For some reason, 99% of my spam is in Japanese now. About 50 per day. And gmail sends it straight to the spam box! All this started the day that I put Japanese as my default language in gmail...

Which is why I have my spam blocker set on maximum and the only thing that gets into my "in" box is email from people or businesses that I have in my email addy book.

Same here I used to get so many spam emails every day it was ridiculous. My Norton Anti-Spam blocks 80-90% of it and the few that do come through I add to my blocked list.
