RE: How to stop windows mail from deleting email attachments

Hey Swabbie...

You didn't say if ALL of your attachments were blocked or just certain
types of attachments.... Possibly this is a Virus Security setting in your
Email Client's options. Take a look at the Menu for: "Tools" > "Options" and
then choose the "Tab labled "Security". There you should find a Check box
for:

"Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a
virus"

If you are only getting graphic file types of attachments and nothing
else, then this setting may be the culprit...

Good Luck,

N2K

It doesn't delete attachments, but it may prevent you from seeing them.
Go to Tools, Options, Security, uncheck "Do not allow attachments..."
and also uncheck "Block images..."
