A few things may be going on:
1) Your ISP may have message size limits. Check with them.
2) If you have your anti-virus scanning outgoing or incoming mail or
are
running anti-spam software, either of those can cause problems. The
outgoing scanning could cause the send to hang. And any of them could
muck up the message so that the combine and decode won't work.
With some anti-virus (and anti-spam) programs, simply disabling the
e-mail scanning function doesn't really disable it. It simply tells
the
program not to flag any messages. It still processes all the messages
and may still cause send/receive failures. What you may need to do is
uninstall the anti-virus program, then reinstall it using a custom
install option and unselect the e-mail scanning component for
installation.
3) This could be a corrupted Outbox folder in Outlook Express:
- Close Outlook Express.
- OE5+: Locate the file outbox.dbx in the mail directory and delete
it.
You can use Start, Find (or Search), Files or Folders, outbox.dbx to
find it. On Win2000 you need enable the display of Hidden or System
files in the folder options and XP you need to use the advanced
options
to find Hidden or System files. (You can also determine the location
by
looking in OE at Tools, Options, Maintenance, Store Folder.)
- Open Outlook Express again. It will create a new empty Outbox.
This could be the cause of the send hanging, but would not cause
problems with the combine and decode assuming that you got all the
parts
in the Inbox.

cannot send multi part emails (large files) I have tried changing the
size of the parts (form 499KB to over 1MEG)
for example if will break the email into 11 parts and then proceed to
send 10 parts over and over.... till I delete it out of the outbox .
right now if I send it to myself (a 4 part in this example) the parts
do
not show up in the right order and they cannot be recombined, even
when
placed in the correct order
any help will be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance saggman54
