>> A friend is trying to email me some pics as attachments, from his PC.  I
>> know I have been able to open his pics in the past, but it has been a while.
>> I do not recall changing any settings.  He is sending them as .jpg, which
>> normally open on my iBook with Pictureviewer.  They are 1K in size.  When I
>> click on the attachment in his email, nothing happens.  "Open" and "Save"
>> options are grayed out.
>> 
>> Can you help me search out what I may need to change?

> I got several helpful responses to my previous post regarding attachments.
> However, I am still having trouble.  The friend mentioned in the above
> original posting showed me the emails he sent when I was at his house, and
> they each showed two or more picture attachments were sent from his computer
> to mine.  What I received was a grayed out, single attchment which would not
> open.  
> 
> I have since had two other people try to send me attachments, one picture
> attachment and one .pdf, and in each case, nothing (not even a grayed out
> attachment) came through.  Not even a paper clip on the message signalling
> an attachment.

> I am using Outlook Express for Mac 5.0.5.  I have checked both "Preferences"
> and "Account Settings" and can find nothing amiss.  I have also checked the
> filter which my ISP uses (Postini).  I am at a loss.
