Default Attachments present but not visible

Apologies, I blame mild dyslexia I meant 'obviate'. I'm heading towards the
simplest solution, change my mail provider. Goodbye NTL, hello googlemail.

I'd still like to open some stubborn attachments, so I'm still looking for
that magic solution nevertheless but thanks anyway

I have no idea.

PS: What does "oviate" mean?

Hi and thanks again for the help. I know you'll not like this suggestion
but will using 'Thunderbird' oviate the Ntlworld/OE conflicts or does it
work the same way? I can of course just try it, but I'm sure the swap
over
will not be straight forward?

Thanks again

Hi,
I have the same problem (have posted earlier). Ntlworld deny Cloudmark
exists on their systems. Any ideas?

You could pester NTLWORLD and note what Michael came up with. That

can you disable Cloudmark, or is it forced upon you? I would get rid of
it
if it was up to me. This particular problem is dedicated to Cluodmark,
but
Outlook Express and spam programs have a long history of not playing
well
together. I don't know what the headers should look like. That is among
one of Michael's qualities and not mine.

Also, if you have e-mail scanning enabled in AVG, please do the
following.
It is not a cure for this problem, but e-mail scanning causes issues of
its
own.

Reinstall AVG and choose Custom Mode. Uncheck E-mail Scanning when you
see
that option. For some reason, just unchecking it in the security center
causes a conflict with the Windows Security Center.

news Hi Bruce

I'm getting there, this solution works.... sometimes..... I can
recover
some
attachments but then get corrupt message text etc, the headers are
more
confused that your link outlines because AVG scan results appear in
the
line
too. Am I best to just pester NTLWORLD to do something about
'Cloudmark',
or
would I be onto a loser there?

Thanks for the help so far, can you direct me to something that will
show
me
what the headers should look like (AVG scans included) or do I use
have
to
use trial and error from past mails that have worked?

But many thanks for at least identifying the likely source of the
problem!

Cheers

...
In the last few days (and there are posts on other sites so I'm not
alone
http://help.wugnet.com/windows2/Atta...ict493907.html)
Outlook Express will download mails with 100k-ish attachments but
though
larger attachments of any file type will download to OE (the mail
size
shows
it has the attachment) no paperclip appears and I can't access the
attachment
in any way. This applies to mails from any external sender
(hotmail,
gmail,
etc). Bizzarely I can forward a mail with a large attachment to
myself
(via
my ntlworld account) and open it as normal (the paper clip is
present).
Hours of doing everything recommended with security settings and
virus
scanners, compacting etc has no effect on this problem. Help!
