"Twayne" wrote in message
... "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message "Twayne" wrote in message ... "WMB" wrote in message Windows XP(Home) SP3, OE6, IE8; Plenty of RAM & HHD space.

Hi, my installation of Outlook Express has developed a problem that I've only recently discovered. E-Mail's that I receive with attachments will not display. Thanks for any help TIA As Bruce indicated, you really need to be more specific. Is the display problem the email itself or the attachments? Or both? Also, is it OE6, on what OS, XP probalby, but: SP2? SP3? What changed on the computer as this started happening, Did any other problems precede it? etc.. The more relevent detail the better. HTH, Twayne` Is this a "Me Too" post also? It is obvious from the OP's message headers that he is running a fully patched XP/SP3 with OE6. X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5843 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2900.5579 [Yawn] Nope; it adds considerably to the content. Hi, adding additional information. The E-Mail with its attachment will download from my ISP to my inbox the same as all other emails. The E-Mail header will show but nothing will show in the preview pane(blank). The E-Mail has the paper clip indicating an attachment but double clicking it does not open it in OE-6 or IE-8. Right clicking the paper clip does give me the option to save the attachment to my Documents Folder. These are E-Mails that I would normally consider as Spam and not open the attachments anyway. The attachments are in html. You are able to see this when right clicking the paper clip prior to saving. I experimented with sending myself a E-Mail with an attachment and everything displayed as it normally should. This was with a txt, doc, and jpg attachment. Possibly, my problem is only with html attachments. All other Spam that slips through to my inbox, displays in my preview pane. Of course, there is no attachment with them. I have seen a control under tools to select "do not download attachments" but I do not have it "selected". Thanks for the help so far. |

Its likely those messages are malformed from junky spamming programs. If
they are all spam then just ignore them. Its not your machine, its the senders's email programs. steve "WMB" wrote in message ... "Twayne" wrote in message ...
