Do they sit in the Outbox? Any error message? Have you tried removing Norton
completely. It, and McAfee, are notorious for not working well with OE.

I would suggest either Avast, (freeware), or NOD32, (not free).

In the case of Avast, choose Custom Installation and under Resident
Protection, uncheck: Internet Mail and Outlook/Exchange.

I have started up my new computer, transferred all of my data from the old
one and just discovered that I cannot send mail with attachments. I am
using
XP Pro as opposed to XP Home before, but still OE6. Have tried various
suggestions in the posts with no luck; Norton is set to NOT scan outgoing
email, tried deleting and replacing Outbox .dbx file, created a new
identity
on OE with the same results. Will send text emails as long as there isn't
an
attachment with it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
