I can't read my Rental Alert emails. It looks like a bunch of computer code.
If all you see are lines and lines of what appears to be computer code, then you are receiving the HTML format emails and your email application cannot read HTML format emails. You need to change the settings on your email application to allow HTML emails.

I can't see the graphics or logo in my Rental Alert emails.
Some Windows security settings and virus protection software will block graphics in an HTML email to keep the sender from identifying your machine. The missing graphics are merely specials on goods and services included in our emails and our logo. We strongly recommend that you DO NOT adjust or change your security settings to view these.
