    Is this isolated event or for every single email in your inbox?

     

    HTML or header info??  Header info can be turned off:

    The html is in the header and the whole message but not all messages.

    part of the header-

    #yiv9293644009 body {margin:0 !important;padding:0 !important;}#yiv9293644009 a:visited {color:#08c;text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 a:hover {text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 a:active {text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 a:hover.yiv9293644009linkbutton {color:#fff;text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 a:active.yiv9293644009linkbutton {color:#fff;text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 a:visited.yiv9293644009linkbutton {color:#fff;text-decoration:none;}#yiv9293644009 .yiv9293644009nobr {white-space:nowrap;}#yiv9293644009 img {max-width:100%;}#yiv9293644009 .yiv9293644009ios-img {display:block;}#yiv9293644009 a .filtered99999

    part of the message-

    you can drag the icon All Headers to the tool bar for convenience. In this way you can easily turn it on and off:
