I swear that a higher power than me must not want me to have a working
computer - my desktop still sits waiting for me to try and figure out how to
complete the reformat.  In the meantime I'm using my laptop which has XP.
Since I switched over to it on Saturday I was having no problem at all when
I would open an e-mail and there was more than one attachment that I wanted
to save, to right click and choose 'save all'.  Then last night WHAM the
computer devil attacked!  If I try to right click and choose 'save all' I
get a message saying "there was an error saving one or more of the
attachments. Please check your free disk space and try again" - well I have
a 30 gig hard drive on here and only 7 gig is used and I even did a defrag
just in case.  I think that somehow a setting got changed but I don't know
where and I hope someone else does.  Reason I came to this conclusion is my
daughter called and said she couldn't e-mail me because she got it returned
saying I was over quota - well this shouldn't have been so checked it out
and that computer devil had changed all my settings to leave the mail on the
server after downloading to my computer - so of course I was over quota!  So
sorry for rambling - but does anyone know where I can look for a setting so
that I can fix it and once again be able to save a group of attachments from
an e-mail without having to do them one by one which takes me forever :-(
Thanks for any help - Dolores
