I'm having the same problem. An email sent from Yahoo with an attachment to
a bellsouth.net account and an aol account. Both addresses are in the "to"
box of the same email with the attachment.

Outlook express pulls the attachment with the IMAP folder for the AOL
account, but doesn't show an attachment with the bellsouth.net account.

Logged into web mail bellsouth and the attachment is there with the email.

Through Apr 27 I could open attachments of all types in OE from Yahoo email
subscribers to my bellsouth.net address. Starting Monday I could not, and
this is true for both of my conputers as well as a next door friend who has
bellsouth.net email service. The problem quickly isolates to OE (even though
it involves at least 3 different computers and two different bellsouth
addresses). The reason is because I can get the attachments and open them
when I go to the bellsouth web-based email site, but when I access the emails
with OE, there is not even an indication that an attachment was included. So
far, the attachments that failed were .doc, .pdf, and .jpg.
There is a twist in this and that is that I can send and receive emails
with attachments to my self OK
I unchecked the "Do not allow attachments ...." block in my Security
settings, and that had no effect. I thought maybe an automatic upgrade may
have caused the problem, but then I tried the OE software on my laptop which
had not been turned on since before Apr 27, and had the same problem.
I called yahoo tech support and they said it had to be my problem. I
called bellsouth tech support and they it was my problem also.
Any ideas would be appreciated
