Yes, the pdf file is an attachment (with a web link in the text body)

AVG is configured to set to scan incoming emails only - i have also tried
turning this off and resending the message, but i makes no difference as the
message still does not arrive (with a word file attachement and a web link in
the message body)?

I dont think the pdf file is a problem as i can send and recieve these. It
seesm to be with word file attachements and web links with the message body.
Thus if i attach a pdf file with this combination it never arrives?

Thank you

I am having problems trying to send a word document (with a web site

is my CV and the link relates to my web site where examples of my work can
be found (i.e nothing dodgy, im just looking for a new job). The word
document has also been converted as pdf with the web site link. Both
document links work fine outside of outlook express.

The message will send (can see the progress bar), but it is not recieved
and
does not show up on the virgin server? I have sent this to my self to
proove
this. If i re-send the message without the word document, with the
hyperlink
removed from the message body and only the pdf attached, it works fine?

I have enabled pop3 on the virgin server, used the recent virgin message
fix
tool and un-checked "do not allow attachements" within oultook and still
it
wont send the discussed message?

Please can you help me to fix this as i really need to send out my CV with
the web site link, thank you.

I am using:

@virgin.net (email account)
Outlook express 6

adobe reader 9
