I recently sent mail to two (2) separate sites recently. One was a dot gov and the other a dot com. The multi-line text content of both messages has been replaced by the identical single line:

tWE1qB8UjaOoCR8glLIvoGv9--

ScreenShot attached.

I haven't yet searched other messages for the occurrence.

What has happened? I need the original texts restored, and also to prevent any future recurrence.

Thank you, christ1, for your prompt and helpful reply. FYI: Effecting the repair initially changed the Threads setting so no content appeared in the text field, but resetting ALL to unchecked revealed the text fields. Oddly, after re-verifying the Threads setting, it's back to ALL and I can't see the texts without expanding the thread. I'll work on that a bit later.
