A puzzler: Using "Format background Sound, attaching a music file, and
sending the email to a few friends, BCC to myself, the music does not play
in the friends' email, but does in mine! I have tried three friends, all
with different providers, and one on dial-up.
Any thoughts?

What type of music files are you sending? Mid, WMAs, ASPs? Midis should
send just fine. WMA's, ASPs, etc. should be steamed from your website
because of the size. You can either create a link, or insert a small script
into your HTML ASFs should be converted to WMA to reduce the file size.

Hi,

When you use "FORMAT / BACKGROUND", you are not using "ATTACHMENT".
"FORMAT - BACKGROUND" works only with WAV or MIDI files.

Good Luck.

What format of file are you sending? WAV, MID, MP3, etc.?

Is the file actually getting sent with the message? In Tools, Options,
Send, Mail, HTML Settings make sure Send Pictures is checked.

Looking at the size of the message should also indicate whether OE is
sending the file or just a link to the file on your hard disk.
