email attachments

I am not receiving some attachments on incoming emails. I've been using Vista
since April 2007, and this is a new problem for me. Any suggestions?

Click on Tools, then Options, then Read. If there is a check mark in the
box before Read all messages in plain text, click on this box and then
Apply. Click on OK.

Do the attachments now appear as a paperclip at the upper right corner
of the message, but not shown in the message? If so, click on the
paperclip and tell us the part of the filename following the last period.

Thanks for your response, but the "Read" box was already unchecked.

Re: email attachments

Apply the part about the paperclip anyway.

Do the attachments happen to come from someone using Outlook
(not Outlook Express) to send them? If so, Windows Mail often
has trouble with such messages.
