<p dir="auto">Hi<br>
For a couple of months now I’ve been seeing mystery messages cropping up in various folders in Mailmate. They also appear in Apple Mail.</p>
<p dir="auto">The messages have no sender, no recipient and no subject.</p>
<p dir="auto">The body text says “Lorem. this is the body text”</p>
<p dir="auto">Mailmate reports there to be an attachment called “test.txt" containing “this is the attachment text”</p>
<p dir="auto">Mailmate says “no headers found” and the raw source is as follows:</p>
<pre style="border:thin solid gray; margin-left:15px; margin-right:15px; max-width:90vw; overflow-x:auto; padding:5px"><code>Content-Type: multipart/mixed;
boundary="XXXXboundary text"
MIME-Version: 1.0
--XXXXboundary text
Content-Type: text/plain
Lorem. this is the body text
--XXXXboundary text
Content-Type: text/plain;
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="test.txt"
this is the attachment text
--XXXXboundary text--
</code></pre>
<p dir="auto">The messages are appearing in folders associated with Microsoft accounts (Office365 and an outlook.com account).</p>
<p dir="auto">I have 10 messages today so far, in folders Inbox, Outbox (!?) and Drafts.</p>
<p dir="auto">Yesterday 58 messages appeared between the hours of 16:09 and 19:09 GMT.</p>
<p dir="auto">When I first noticed the messages I assumed security had been compromised and engaged in a wholesale change of passwords, but that changed nothing.</p>
<p dir="auto">I’m running Mailmate 5676 on Mac OS 10.15.3.</p>
<p dir="auto">Is there a ghost in my machine?</p>
<p dir="auto">All help gratefully received,</p>
<p dir="auto">Regards</p>
<p dir="auto">-- <br>
Jim Cook</p>
