Just courious here but did you check the settings? In OE there is a
setting to not download attachments. Tools->Options->Security There
you wil find som settings that can be changed. I always recomment
setting the security zone to Internet Zone and then to uncheck the "Do
not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentialy be a
virus." Then click Apply and then Ok. Let me know if that fixes it.


The setting you describe still downloads the attachments. OE does not know what part is the attachment until after the download and it never deletes attachments.
