What is an unsafe attachment?
Do you have Norton?
How to use Office programs with the Norton AntiVirus Office plug-in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/329820/ You might want to check out your security options in Outlook or whatever email client you use. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "iclkid" wrote in message news Actually I believe it is a problem with both MSN and Publisher because I was able to attach the file directly using MSN. Trying to use the drop down "File" while the document is open and then "Send email" then "Send as Publication Attachment is the culprit here. And interestingly, each time I try to send it through the drop down menu in Publisher, the error appears in the MSN email in hexidecimal incrementseach time I attempt to attach it. IE: pubCA6.tmp to just now and error pubDAF.tmp. The error in the MSN email says: "Virus or unsafe files were detected in one or more attached files. The following attached files were removed or cleaned: pubDAF.tmp" resulting in an empty emai. Yes, I found a workaround but why is this happening? Can you duplicate it? Thanks =================================== Thanks for the reply...I thought the .tmp file could be the problem but I don't know why it's happening unless it's an issue with MSN. At least you discovered a satisfactory way to send the file. -- John Inzer |

OK JoAnn, I didn't know that. Thanks for the response.
"JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote: If you aren't using Outlook or Outlook Express, sending an email thru Publisher doesn't work. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "iclkid" wrote in message ... It must be a fault of sending and email via Publisher. I simply opened an email in MSN and attached the file from there rather that via Publisher and it works just fine. Don't know why but such is the case. Thanks for your response. "iclkid" wrote: This is my 3rd attempt to answer you. I keep getting server busy and I lose my reply to bit heaven. One more time. MSN gives the error and identifies the documnet as a tmp file and generates the errors when I attempt to attach the file in an email using File in Publisher. I never get to send it out as MSN removes the "tmp" from the email and I end up with a blank email. "JoAnn Paules [MVP]" wrote: Who is getting the error? You or the recipient? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "iclkid" wrote in message ... I am creating my 3rd newsletter in Publisher and when I try to send this one as an email for proof reading, I am getting an error saying virus or unsafe attachment, pubCA6.tmp removed and no attachment at all is in the email. How can I correct this? My Norton is current and does not see a virus. |

OK John, My understanding is that it does work with OE and I am using MSN. I am ok with that. Apparently it is the combo of Publisher and MSN. Thanks for your response.

OK, I am told that it only works with Outlook Express and yes, my Norton is
up to date. I do not use OE. MSN works fine, it does not if used within Publisher. So I am OK and will not try to email it from Publisher. Thanks for the info. "Mary Sauer" wrote: Do you have Norton?

Just a thought: why not use one of the freeware programs to create a PDF and
email that instead?

That's actually a much better way but I've done it the same ways as she has
on occasion. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Brucels" wrote in message ... Just a thought: why not use one of the freeware programs to create a PDF and email that instead?

OK, Bruce, I would love to convert it to PDF format, but Publisher does not
offer that. I email it out to have someone else convert it for me and then I email our first draft in PDF for proofing to those that don't have Publisher. When the .pub is corrected, we then send it out again for reformatting to PDF for our website. It is a pain. Can you tell me the name of thefreeware conversion program? PS: How come Publisher doesn't offer PDF formatting? "Brucels" wrote: Just a thought: why not use one of the freeware programs to create a PDF and email that instead?

iclkid was very recently heard to
utter: OK, Bruce, I would love to convert it to PDF format, but Publisher does not offer that. I email it out to have someone else convert it for me and then I email our first draft in PDF for proofing to those that don't have Publisher. When the .pub is corrected, we then send it out again for reformatting to PDF for our website. It is a pain. Can you tell me the name of thefreeware conversion program? An example is PrimoPDF, available from www.primopdf.com Does require Publisher to offer anything other than a Print button. PS: How come Publisher doesn't offer PDF formatting? Because Microsoft has never had the time and/or inclination to add it. This will hopefully change in 2007 Microsoft Publisher, but there is now the possibility that it won't, as Adobe is attempting to sue Microsoft for including it. -- Ed Bennett - MVP Microsoft Publisher http://ed.mvps.org/ |
