I have just been tidying up my sent mail and trash, and noticed that a few messages had the comment " this message has no content".

All I see, is the sender and recipient names and that message, any ideas please.

As the iPad is, essentially, a "mirror" of your e-mail server - when you move e-mail out of the Inbox by deleting them, you've "broken" the link to the server for that e-mail. So, the server cant feed the iPad the details of that particular e-mail. If you were to move the e-mail back to the Inbox, that "no content" message will disappear and you'll see the actual e-mail. The iPad Mail service won't bother connecting to the server on deleted emails.

Which is a long-winded way of saying - this is normal behavior. :) Again, if you want to see what the e-mail said, just move it back to the Inbox.

Hope this clarifies.
