Attachment problems

Jeannie

I am having problems with attachments - I attach a JPEG, but frequently it
arrives at the recipient's end as a DAt file - and then can't be opened. Any
idea why?

You mean tell the sender (Jeannie) not to use use Rich Text, right?

I've just checked mine, and my messages are sent in HTML. this particular
recipient uses Outlook Express, and I've copied and pasted instructions to
her.I don't want to use Plain Text as I attach a signature to my new messages
for my business.

What's the problem with using signatures in plain text?
Look at the bottom of this plain-text post!

Won't necessarily work. The better answer is, don't send in rich text - send
in plain text or HTML.
