TB does not show emails correctly, everything is objects, can't click links, can't open attachments....

Hello all. :-)

Since the last update, I can SEND email fine(including attachments), but when I OPEN any email, all the items on the screen show up like editable objects, none of the links work, you can't download or otherwise access any attachment, and I am getting a cryptic message in yellow at the bottom of the window.

I tried downgrading to the last version that worked, but then TB would not allow me to import the profile, as the latest version has obviously done something in the profile, to make it incompatible if you downgrade - I just get a message that you can't import the profile, it was created in a newer version of TB......sod off. ;-)

I have attached images of what I am seeing. I have pixelized my email address etc, for privacy.

Can anyone help?
