This issue with my MAXX has been driving me nuts but I think I finally realized what the problem is today so now I just need to figure out how to fix it... Every once and a while I get an email from someone that I can't view the body / text of the message using the Gmail email app, the latest Droid Forums Newsletter in the pix below is a perfect example....
If I switch to a web type email interface I can view the text fine but as you can see in the picture below, using the Gmail app the message appears to be blank. At first I thought it must be somehow because I'm trying to view black text on a black background but now I just figured out what's really causing the problem. As I'm typing this I just looked at the same newsletter email on my PC (via Outlook) and I see the original message displays on my PC as black text on a grey background so somehow this email client can't resolve it properly.
I checked all of the configuration settings but can't find any options related to this. I seem to recall during my initial setup that I was able to chose to view email as back text on a white background vs white on black. I don't see that option anywhere in the Gmail client or the system configuration settings but don't even know if that will fix it.
All of my emails display as black text on a white background which is what I prefer. Is there a configuration setting I can change or Is there a better email client I should use?
Gmail Email v 4.0.1
Android v 4.0.4
