Why are programming symbols suddenly interspersed in my email messages?
About 3 weeks ago, I began getting what look like programming strings interspersed in email messages from one source. No one else who gets email from that source gets them. No other email is affected. They are a combination of
and strings of letters and symbols sometimes every other word or full paragraphs of these.

Possibly something to do with malware.
Are other recipients using webmail, or email with security software and you are using something else ?
Did you try a different encoding (View > Character Encoding) ?

Re: the first response...this particular email is going to hundreds of others and the webmaster says that he has made no changes. One other person responded that she was having the same problem, but none of the rest.
Re: the second response...I just have to figure out how to do the first part of what you recommend since I'm not all that computer literate. I am in the process of updating the plugins as you suggested. I'll just have to see if that does anything.
Thank you both!!!
