Re: Opening my email in outlook express

Hi Tim,
The "Automatically download message when viewing in the Preview Pane" option
is checked as it should be. So is the "Show Preview Pane" in the Layout
options. All the settings that I know of are properly set. This all began
when I updated all of the windows and office security updates. As I keep
messing with, what is happening is it is only allowing emails to be viewed as
attachments. It doesn't matter if they were already in my folders or if new
emails come through. I have to open all of them as attchments to read. Talk
about frustrating!
