Default Not receiving attachments

...One of the Outlook Express users
never receives attachments from me.


Only use Plain Text format when sending to this recipient, especially if
there's an attachment.

Hello,
I'm seeing an issue that confuses me, and was hoping someone could give me
a
suggestion or two.
We use POP3 email at our office. Some users run Outlook while others use
Outlook Express. I am running Outlook 07. One of the Outlook Express
users
never receives attachments from me. The message comes through just fine,
but no attachment. There is no .dat file or .txt file or any notice that
an
attachment has been stripped, it's as if the attachment never existed.
Other OE users in the office receive attachments from me just fine. Not
being that familiar with OE, I was hoping someone might know if there's a
security setting somewhere about downloading attachments. I did see the
option about not opening attachments that could potentially be a virus,
but
the users who do receive attachments from me have that checked, so it
wouldn't seem that could be it. (I didn't see anything in the security
settings on our mail platform that looked like it could be the culprit.)
All of our OE users are running OE6, XPPro. Any suggestions would be
greatly appreciated.
