[pchelpers] Re: Invisible Attachments


Jon, did you try what I suggested, to rename the .EML file so that it
has a .UUE extension, then see if WinZip will look at it?  I just tried
it here on an email with an attachment, and it worked fine.  It treated
the entire email as an archive, showing two text parts and the
attachment itself.  All you have to do is change the extension to .UUE,
and then tell Winzip to open it.  If WinZip was installed with the
default options, all you'd have to do is try to open the UUE file in
Windows, and WinZip will automatically pop up and open the file.

Not that I've noticed nope. When messages like that appear, Hal (my
speech
programme) halts and reads that screen, and I can do nothing till I've
closed that message window. Nothing like that has appeared.

I've had it once or twice with an .exe file, but not with mp3 files.

Will Hotmail accept a 3.68mb file? Hmm! Don't think so?
