Here's how to Fix Mail App showing HTML code for Emails in Windows.

This is a known issue that affects some users of the Mail app in Windows 10 or 11. The Mail app displays the emails in HTML code instead of the regular readable format. This can make it difficult to read and reply to the emails. There are some possible solutions that you can try to fix this issue:

- Check your internet connection. Sometimes, a slow or unstable internet connection can cause the Mail app to show HTML code instead of formatting the emails properly. You can check your internet speed using any online tool and reboot your router or contact your ISP if needed. You can also disconnect and reconnect your internet connection and see if that helps.

- Remove and re-add your email account. There may be a temporary glitch with your email account that prevents the Mail app from detecting and displaying it correctly. You can try removing and re-adding your email account in the Mail app and see if that resolves the issue. To do this, open the Mail app and click on the **Settings** icon at the bottom left corner. Then click on **Manage accounts** and select the email account you want to remove. Click on **Delete account from this device** and confirm your choice. Then click on **Add account** and follow the instructions to add your email account again.

- Reset the Mail app. The Mail app may show HTML code if it is corrupted or misconfigured. You can try resetting the Mail app to its default settings and see if that fixes the problem. To do this, open the **Settings** app and go to **Apps - Apps & features**. Find the Mail app and click on the three dots next to it. Then click on **Advanced options** and scroll down to **Reset**. Click on the **Reset** button and confirm your choice. This will delete the app's data and restore it to its original state.

- Allow Mail through the firewall. The Mail app may show HTML code if your firewall or antivirus software blocks or interferes with it. You can try allowing the Mail app through your firewall and see if that helps. To do this, open the **Control Panel** and go to **System and Security - Windows Defender Firewall**. Then click on **Allow an app or feature through Windows Defender Firewall** on the left pane. Find the Mail app and check both **Private** and **Public** boxes next to it. Then click on **OK** to save the changes.

- Use a browser or an alternative email client. If none of the above solutions work, you may have to wait for Microsoft to release a fix for this issue. In the meantime, you can use a browser to access your email account online or use an alternative email client such as Microsoft Outlook or eM Client. These options may not show HTML code for your emails and offer more features than the Mail app.

i. There are a few reasons why your Mail app might not be sending emails. Here are some things you can try:

1. **Check your internet connection.** The Mail app needs an internet connection to send emails. Make sure you are connected to the internet and that your connection is strong enough.
2. **Check your email settings.** Make sure your email settings are correct. You can check your email settings by going to Settings - Mail - Accounts.
3. **Restart your device.** Sometimes a simple restart can fix problems with apps.
4. **Update the Mail app.** There may be a new version of the Mail app that fixes the problem. You can update the Mail app by going to the App Store and searching for Mail. If there is an update available, it will be listed under Updates.
5. **Remove and re-add your email account.** If you've tried all of the above and the Mail app is still not sending emails, you can try removing and re-adding your email account. To do this, go to Settings - Mail - Accounts and tap on the email account you want to remove. Then, tap on Delete Account. To add the account back, tap on Add Account and follow the instructions.

If you've tried all of the above and the Mail app is still not sending emails, you can contact your email provider for help.

Here are some additional tips for troubleshooting the Mail app:

* **Make sure you have enough storage space.** The Mail app needs enough storage space to store your emails. If you are running low on storage space, try deleting some old emails or moving them to a different folder.
* **Try using a different email app.** If you are still having problems with the Mail app, you can try using a different email app, such as Gmail or Outlook.
* **Check for other problems with your device.** If you are having other problems with your device, such as problems with other apps or the internet, you may need to contact Apple support for help.
