483146 2006-09-10 04:06:00 No thats on the incoming file. I can see that but not the message underneath cowboy stu (7021)
483147 2006-09-10 05:35:00 It sounds like you are just seeing the mime encoded data instead of the attachment.

Perhaps knowing what email program you use may shed some light on it.

483148 2006-09-10 06:55:00 Yep I thought it could be something like that. Using outlook express to bring in but save to folder the file then open with word as it is a doc file. cowboy stu (7021)
483149 2006-09-10 10:00:00 Are you using File->Save As ? This may be the problem. If this is the case then you are saving the email message source. Since this is a plain text document Word would open it as such and display all the headers, message body, and the encoded attachments.

If this is the case try using File->Save Attachments instead or click on the file name in the attachments list and select to save it.
