Until Yesterday I was using Internet Explorer/Outlook Express 5.5. I then downloaded Internet Explorer 6 Beta, and kept getting about 70% of my e-mails arrive with no subject title (even though they did have a subject when opening them to read,) messing up my filtering system
I reinstalled IE 5.5 but the problem still exists- is it a problem with the e-mail address I am using, the sender or something else?

Ah the beauties of Beta testing! Did you read the preamble before downloading it,
Important This is beta software, distributed for feedback and testing purposes. Microsoft does not provide technical support for beta products. This software is for advanced users who regularly test pre-released software. If you are unsure of whether this accurately describes you, Microsoft recommends that you do NOT download this software. If you choose to install this software, Microsoft recommends that you install it in a test environment and not on a primary computer or operating system.
You may have to back up format C and reinstall Windows, sorry.
