Problem very important for my Client - HTML mail

I have installed Lotus Notes 6.5.5 BETA 2 because in the release 6.5.4 on my Mac OSX 10.4.3, when opening some email in HTML format the Client Crash…and I must Kill Notes and re-open.

With 6.5.5 Beta 2 I have the same problem!!!

There are a work-around or solution for my problem?

P.S. If I open with a Windows the MAIL user database (I’m logged with administrator) and fowardin the message to the original user,He see completly the HTML mail…

Please contact support. If the client crashes, particularly doing something ordinary like reading an email, we like to know about it. They will need a copy of the messages in question, in a little Notes database, and any crash output files (I don’t know what they’re named on the Mac), to figure out what it is special about this message that’s causing a problem.

Possible workaround: write an agent to run on new mail before it’s delivered in this user’s mail file, and convert the MIME email to rich text. Use doc.GetFirstItem(“Body”), which returns it as a NotesRichTextItem; then make some little change to it – nrti.AppendText(“”) (even this might not be necessary). Now it’s stored as rich text instead of HTML, so whatever problem the Mac has converting it, should not be an issue.

I send to IBM the file of the crash…The very problem is that when I open this HTML/XML email…the client freeze…and I must forcing the quit of Lotus Notes.

Now, I have develop a Agent manually that on the selected document copy the body field in a rich-text and save it.

the istruction are:


Dim session As New NotesSession

Dim db As NotesDatabase

Dim rti As NotesRichTextitem

Set db=session.currentdatabase

Set collection=db.unprocesseddocuments



For i=1 To collection.count

	Set doc=collection.getnthdocument(i)

	Set rti=doc.getfirstitem("body")

	Call doc.save(False,False)

Next

But the formatted of the mail is orrible…and the image are replace with the red text [IMAGE].

You know the solution for this problem?
