Some of my incoming emails have recently appeared as plain text with lots of coding after the message "this is a multipart message in mime format".

The problem appears random in that it does not always occur with any particular sender. Some emails appear OK, some are corrupted.
 
What antivirus do you use? This is often caused by using Antivirus that installs an outlook addin. If it's fairly frequent you could run outlook in safe mode to see if it happens, but when the problem is less frequent, its much harder to troubleshoot.

I have been using Iolo Antivirus (System Mechanic) for years but never had this before.

The problem is quite intermittent. Several times one day and then not again for a week or so. Guess I'll just have to persevere....

Thanks,

I'm not familiar with that one - it's not on the list of 'installs antivirus add-ins'. Check in File, options, addins - any addins that might point to it? If not, its just general, intermittent corruption and that is very hard to track down, especially when its random. If you can link the problematic messages - all use mac, all use the same mail host, all use the same mail server software, etc, then we have something to go on. (Those three have all been tied to this problem in the past.)
