14631 2001-06-26 21:50:00 Recently after running for some time with no problems when I send an e-mail with an attachment the attachment is no always received by the recipients.

This has occurred both when sending an email to only one person ore when sending to a group of people.

Some members of the group have seen the attachment ans some have not.

It always shows as an e-mail containg an attachment when I check my 'sent' folder.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you.

14632 2001-06-27 20:37:00 hi chris,A simple test to is to send an email with an attachment to your self(put your email address in the to box)
I'm guessing your friends that aren't recieving the attachment are using an email program like microsoft outlook?
In microsoft outlook you have the option to choose what you recieve EG: text only.(I cant remember where tho)
Just an idea but maybe worth looking at.
cheers steve

Yep, I've tried that as a possible fix but to no avail.

Funny thing was all these people happily received attachments from me previously and now it affects only some of them..

Thanks again for your response.

14634 2001-06-28 18:36:00 Chris I have been looking for the doc's on this one to support my anwser, but i cant find it at the mo, but im pretty sure this is not you but actually your freinds settings in particular ms outlook with the security updates made. Certin file types are deleted straight away therfore minaizing any chance of damage being done by the occasion nasty attachemts. A way around this would be to say zip you attachemts that you send allowing you freinds to see the attachment as the zip file extension is allowed.
