Hi there, Exchange 2000 Standard SP3 (version 6.0 Build 6249.4 SP3) on a Windows 2000 server. Last night I shut down the server to convert to a rack mount. This conversion was external only. There was no need to open the case. After completion, upon rebooting the server, the external e-mail which had been held in queue by our corporate puremessage spam server, started coming into our system and going to appropriate mailboxes as expected. I connected to my inbox (Outlook) noticed that I had several e-mails delivered after the reboot. Two were from the president of company. I opened and saw there was no body to her e-mails. I found this strange. I had eight additional external e-mails, from newsgroups, etc. All of them opened fine. I assumed the issue was around the President's e-mails (she insists on using AOL (I KNOW), so I figured we'll deal with it later. When I came in this a.m. it appears that a lot of incoming external e-mails lost their body content (but not all). Doing some spot checking there seems to be no obvious relationship between those e-mails which lost the body content and those that did not. It does not matter e-mail type: Plain text versus HTML. It seems that e-mail sent from a person was more likely to have its content stripped while e-mail from a news group, or e-mail newsletter was not stripped (but there have been exceptions to this as well). Our firewall does not utilize an SMTP proxy. I spoke with a few people, including our corporate folks to (to see if they were having issues with their spam server, - NO), and the response to our scenario is "I've never heard of that before". It should be noted that the issues were resolved after the catch up of the incoming e-mail. No complaints since then. I am at a loss. I'd be happier if all the e-mails lost their body's. It would make sense. ANY suggestions?? Thanks, Dan
