OE only supports .wav and .mid files in the background. There are some tools
out there that converts MP3s to a .wav or .mid. Do a search.

Using XP, IE6, & OE6.
I can send an Email using a WAV or MIDI as background but for some reason
I CANNOT set a MP3 as a "Background Sound". MP3 is an available selection
in the sound location window but it does not enter the MP3 into the Email
(just enters my C drive location).

Can anyone send an MP3 as background?
Can anyone shed some light on this?
