Re: Cannot receive attachments in Windows Mail


UPDATE: I simply closed WM and reopened it and now my images are back.
Very strange. Thanks again to everyone I think things good now......I
hope.

Thanks to everyone for the help. Changing the settings in Outlook for my
home email address seemed to have worked; I am able to open the test
attachement sent earlier today. I do notice that WM is now not
displaying images in any HTML email I recieve. Even images that were
there yestaerday are now gone. Is this problem related to my initial
problem?

Thanks for the links, I have changed the settings of my home email
address in my office Outlook to send as HTML and sent a test email. I'll
see how it goes when I get home.

Whether you use Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail makes no
difference as far as the Outlook problem is concerned.
Try setting Outlook for plain text only when sending attachments
to your home PC. It is possible that the Exchange server at the
office is changing the attachment format. For more on this issue see:
'Attachments are not visible to some recipients who do not use Outlook
to read e-mail messages' (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287720)
