Hi Trisha,

One possibility is a security setting for attachments offered by your
Internet provider. This setting might be available from your ISP's Web
browser option for sending and receiving e-mail. You might ask your ISP if
messages with attachments for your account are blocked, if a setting is not
apparent.
