The "PK" at the very beginning of the output could possibly be a Zip signature. In other words, this could be a ZIP file. (the origins of using PK to denote zip file types originated from Phil Katz, the creator of the Zip file format... and a program called PKZIP.)

Beware of this email message however... It could also be a poorly constructed Malware payload that should have been flagged as SPAM. Look at the message headers to see where it came from. ( hit Control-U to open the message source dialog box). Locate the first blank line, and scroll up to view all of the "Received:" header entries. They appear in reverse chronological order. Confirm that the bottom-most Received header is from a trustworthy source, and that the "From:" and "Reply-To:" addresses confirm that the source is who you think it is.

This originated from me. It did have an image derived from a website. Could that have been the source?

I solved the problem by deleting the account and then adding it again, Thanks for your advice
