  For the past several months my email subscriptions of wordpress blogs displays incorrectly with a yellow background and broken links everywhere. What happened?

  I used to receive my wordpress subscriptions via email using Windows Live Mail without any formatting problems but now the background has suddenly become yellow and there are broken links and images everywhere.

  This started about 2-3 months ago and yet I have changed no setting whatsoever in WIndows Live Mail.

  Hi Normand!

  I’m happy to help you investigate this issue. First, are you able to access your mail in-browser (i.e. not through an application)? If so, does the yellow background appear there as well?

  I don’t know how to do that. I just know that everything looked great using Windows Live Mail until about several months ago when all my email subscriptions now come in with a bright yellow background and all the links are broken. From Hotmail… no problem.

  Hi there,

  So, the problem seems to be localized to WIndows Live Mail, not the email, as it appears correct inside Hotmail. Is that correct? Can you make sure you’re viewing the HTML version of the email and not another variation?

  That’s probably it but I can’t seem to find the switch to HTML option. Can’t expect much… using Microsoft software… total BS. Thanks anyway.
