Title: Strange email
Post by: cdrover(Clyde) on October 24, 2013, 09:10:35 pm

This morning when I checked my emails I noticed there was one in my inbox identified as, " no sender" and "no content". It was dated 12/31/1969. There was nothing to open, I closed the program and reopened it and that email was gone. Has anyone had this happen? And what could have caused it. Is it a communication from the 5th dimension? Wooooooo, woooooooo :o

Run a virus scan as soon as you can just to be sure you haven't been hacked.

Windows keeps time as the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970. A date of 12/31/1969 means a time equal to 0 seconds. Sounds like your email server burped.
