Attachment lost when forwarding

P

When I forward emails in Entourage that have attachments, the
attachment does not forward with the message. THis is very
frustrating. I saw this topic in some old posts but could not see if a
solution was ever found. Anyone else have this problem.

It's not a problem, it's by design.

However, if you use the 'forward as attachment' command in Office 2004, the
original mail, complete with it's attachments and embedded data will be
forwarded intact.

Firstly, thanks very much, I was having this same problem and this thread
has resolved it.

However, you say it is not a problem Barry, when clearly it is. I can
understand why MS might want this to be the default behaviour, but they
should have made it a setting that you can change if you like.

'Forward as attachment' does not provisde a suitable alternative as it does
not allow you to easily read or edit the text you are forwarded.

I hope this problem is fixed in the next patch/version.
