You shouldn't have to disable the preview pane in order to double click
a message to open it.
Also make sure that you have a mail folder selected (not a newsgroup)
when you check that the preview pane header is enabled (mail and news
have their own settings.)
Also, is it possible that the OE window may be to far to the right and
paper clip is off the screen?
If you still have problems, try creating a new identity and see of the
paper clip appears there.

Hi! Michael. After I read this thread, I have the same problem of the
paperclip icon disappears on the preview pane despite of the fact that
the
Show Preview Pane Header has been selected. If I de-select the Preview
Pane
and open the messsage, I can see the attachment is there. How can I
get the
paperclip icon back? This happen after I upgrade my XP home to XP prof
(both
are SP2).

Are you missing the paper clip in the list of messages or the preview
pane?
If the list of messages, make sure that in View, Columns the
Attachment
column is included. If it is, you might try making it a bit wider in
case it accidentally got shrunk to small to show the paperclip.
If you aren't seeing it in the preview pane, you need to select a
folder, then View, Layout, Preview Pane, Show Preview Pane Header in
order to see the paper clip for attachments. If you select a News
folder, then do the above, that applies to news messages instead.
As for you friends having problems opening attachments, have them
start
here:
To stop the blocking of Any attachments, see this article:

If you've installed XP SP2, then see:

When I receive an email with an attachment I no longer see a
paperclip
as with earlier versions of OE and I have no problems opening
attachments. However some of my friends still see a paperclip and
have
problems opening attachments. Is this an older build of OE 6 (this
is
the version they are running) or some setting or other they have on
their computers. Help on how to fix this please.
TIA
B.W.
