(re Outlook97) About 1/3 of my group mail arrives with the paperclip icon. When I open these, I get one of two things: (1) an email window with nothing but the blue e icon (Internet Explorer) with a file name below it. The file names are all "ATT00015.html" (with different numbers based on how many came in with this Check-Mail session); or (2) an email window with a Notepad icon and a file name like "ATT00018.txt; charset = Window...." These emails are from members of two different mailing lists (one is mso; the other is a YahooGroup). The posts do NOT contain attachments -- I can read them on extra-cautious AOL with no indication of attached files. Doubleclicking on the file names gets me a box titled Opening Mail Attachment and asks me to choose between Open It or Save it to Disk. I have my Security setting (in Tools: Attachments) set to High -- there are only two options: High or None. Any ideas? Change the Attachments setting to None?
