I have a couple email messages that include sound, music, but I don't hear
anything. How can I turn the sound on?. Thanks.

Hi SD,

I don't think there is a simple answer to the question. There are a number
of things to explore.

How was it determined there is sound embedded in the messages?
Is the sound file embedded in the messages or is it linked to a Web source?
Do you know what type of sound file is involved? (*.wav, *.mid, other)
Are messages being read in Plain Text? (Tools, Options, Read)
Is HTML content allowed? (Tools, Options, Security)
Is sound otherwise okay? (to eliminate speaker connection issues)

Hi SD,

There are two things (I can think of) that might help find the answer.

Can you forward one of the messages (do not send) with the sending format
set to Plain Text and see a sound file attachment in the resulting message
window?

Check the source (of the message) for the file name and type, and see if
there is a large block of coded text for the sound file.

Subject: Fw: Fw: Absolutely Stunning (Sound On)]














------------------------------------------------------------------------








Subject: Absolutely Stunning (Sound On)




The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing
with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best
conversation you've ever had.




It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but
it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love
you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their
heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours. It takes only a minute
to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love
someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.



Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that
fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile
to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.


May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to
make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you
happy.


Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you,
it probably hurts the other person, too




The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of
everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their
way.


Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have
searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the
importance of people who have touched their lives.





When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was
smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling
and everyone around you is crying. !


Please send this message to those people who mean something to you,
to those who have touched your life in one way or another, to those who make
you smile when you really need it, to those that make you see the brighter
side of things when you are really down, to those who you want to let them
know that you appreciate their friendship. And if you don't, don't worry,
nothing bad will happen to you, you will just miss out on the opportunity to
brighten someone's day with this message...

Hi SD,

Not sure what to make of this. I see text that says "(Sound On)]," but it is
only text -- no embedded sound or link to a sound file. If you trust me,
feel free to send a 'saved as' copy of one of the messages in question and I
will examine it.
