OE will attempt to automatically combine E-mail messages if they are
downloaded together. For Newsgroups, it must be done manually.

In what way does combine and decode not work?

You must highlight all the parts first. And all the parts must all be
there.

When you select Combine and Decode you must reorder the parts in the
dialog presented unless they are already in order.

And when done, OE should present you with a single message with the
combined message and hopefully decoded attachment. But if it's an
encoding method that OE doesn't support, such as yEnc, then you'll be
left with a large text message which you'll need to save and use a
manual decoder on.

My OE6 works fine in all respects except when receiving large
attachments which have been split into smaller multiple parts by the
sender's OE6. I remember some time ago this used to work ok but now
the parts do not combine automatically nor does 'combine and decode'
work.

What is wrong??

I am using WinXP SP2 fully updated.
