[pchelpers] Re: File extension - the mystery deepens


        Inge, I am not exactly a computer 'wizard' but this is the
explanation I sent to ReNa. Hopefully this is close to the truth.  Cy

        Apparently the problem is the difference between Outlook Express
which I believe you are using and Outlook which Inge is using. At least
this seems to be what Nigel said in his message suggesting using WinZip. 
 Not sure why it works some times and not others.  
        Apparently all attached files are converted to MIME for
transporting on the Internet since with older systems this was the only
way they could get through. In most cases now, the converting is normally
automatic at the receiving end but there was a problem with an older
version of Juno and apparently Outlook has a similar problem.

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
