We have one computer that displays a received email rather strangely and we
would like to correct it. When a received email is displayed on this computer
it only shows whom it is FROM. It does not display the To: names.

Doesn't sound like a bug to me judging from the info provided. It could be
that the message only contained BCC addresses and nothing specified in the
To and CC field.

I forgot to mention that when the same email is displayed on other computers,
all the "To" names show up... in this particular email there is six names.

But it is only for this single message?
What mail account type are you using and what exact version of Outlook 2003?

Thanks for your help...

I just created a new test email and addressed it to 8 associates. When I
opened this email on his computer, it only shows “from” at the top with no
“To” names. All the other computers displayed the email normally.
I’m not sure what you mean about mail account but here is the version:
Microsoft Office Outlook 2003       11.5608.5606

Where exactly are you looking to the To field? In the Reading Pane? Is it
still empty when you double click to open the message in its own window?

I opened the email in it's own window and it only shows "from".
My email is dennis@cartcorp.com
If you like, I can send you a screen shot of what I am talking about.

NEVER post your real address in a newsgroup unless you LIKE spam and
viruses.

We reinstalled the software and it seems to be working fine now... thanks for
your time.

Perhaps it was sent to you with your address in the Bcc field.
