Item ended emails show gobbledegook computer language?

Not sure of where to post this. For the past 2 weeks all of my emails from eBay that an item ended without a sale (and drop by one dollar in hopes it will sell lololol) has nothing but computereez stuff in the body of the email?

 

Here is what I get after the blue lined title and ebay request to drop the price and relist. And it isn't my cache, it isn't my Chrome. It isn't anything other than another glitch. How do I get this fixed. And all of my items are mobile friendly, all very clean of http html, whatever it is called. Anybody out there who can solve?

That is broken HTML in the body of the email. Missing leading tags causing it not to render as HTML but as plain text.

>>And it isn't my cache, it isn't my Chrome. It isn't anything other than another glitch.

That is not true unless demonstrated.


>>How do I get this fixed.

Figure out what the problem really is, and if warranted, report to eBay.


>>And all of my items are mobile friendly, all very clean of http html, whatever it is called.

No relevance to this problem.


>>Anybody out there who can solve?

Maybe.

Either broken on the sending side, in the middle of transport by your email provider, or by your browser. Nothing like that happens to any emails I receive from eBay (or for most others) which would tend to point the finger at your end (if eBay was sending broken emails over a 2 week period it would affect more than just you.)

If you want to dig into it further, and feel you can trust me, PM me for my email address and you can forward the email to me and I'll look at it (any by forward I don't mean a copy paste of the text, but instead a true forward of the original email including headers either as an attachment if your email client/web interface can do that or as a text dump of the RAW message source if your email client can do that)

If the raw message source is broken it's eBay or your email provider. If not, it's your email client/web interface.

(this all presumes you are actually talking about real emails to an email address and not eBay messaging messages in you eBay account inbox )

Thanks. Will PM you to get your email addy so I can forward what I have direct to you. All other ebay messages to my personal email, which these unsold notices go to, not ebay messaging program. All the other eBay notices like your item is listed, someone looking at your item in cart, all other ebay notices are normal. Thanks for your help.
