Actually I believe it is a problem with both MSN and Publisher because I
was able to attach the file directly using MSN.

Trying to use the drop down "File" while the document is open and then "Send
email" then "Send as Publication Attachment is the culprit here. And
interestingly, each time I try to send it through the drop down menu in
Publisher, the error appears in the MSN email in hexidecimal incrementseach
time I attempt to attach it. IE: pubCA6.tmp to just now and error
pubDAF.tmp.

The error in the MSN email says: "Virus or unsafe files were detected in
one or more attached files. The following attached files were removed or
cleaned: pubDAF.tmp" resulting in an empty emai.

Yes, I found a workaround but why is this happening? Can you duplicate it?

Thanks

===================================
Thanks for the reply...I thought the .tmp
file could be the problem but I don't know
why it's happening unless it's an issue
with MSN. At least you discovered a
satisfactory way to send the file.
