Ok so I have reviewed all these posts and I'm lost. I am currenty experiencing the same problem. Some - very few - attachments are coming through. Most are not. What was the solution?

Windows Mail will download any attachment. If they are not downloading then something besides Windows Mail is blocking them. It is possible for an ISP to do this but more often it is an anti-virus scanning email. If the attachment is downloading but not opening, can you save it to your hard drive and optn it from there?

It seems to me that Windows Mail + Vista Home Premium maybe just does not work? Maybe I'd be better biting the bullet and seeing if I can afford to buy Office Standard 2007 and getting Outlook and moving from the installed Works8.5 software too?

Hi, BD.
Frank Saunders deserves much credit for his many posts here and elsewhere, helping users for years. His posts are still available in archives, and in occasional quotes in current messages. I was impressed and proud of Frank's dedication as he continued to post help here almost to the day he died. But the page you referred to lists only current MVPs. And, as reported, our MVP Frank is one of many friends and colleagues who are no longer with us. I miss him. RC -- R. C.
