I didn't think it changed anything but it was possible. So is it only 
your AOL friends with problems or are they Windows users as well ?

AOL and Hotmail both play games with attachments. Have them do a Get 
Properties on the attachments. This might help to track down the 
problem. I think that AOL is changing the format of the attachments.



Okay here's what I dug up. AOL users need to use Aladdin Expander for 
Windows, I'm guessing that's who you are sending to. AOL won't 
automatically open attachments. So have them save them to a folder then 
use the program to unstuff them. Here is the link.
