Trying to forward an email with attachment (jpg.1.35mb) this is the error I
receive from MAILER-DAEMON: Remote host said: 550-X-Mime-Error.Serious MIME
defect detected. No good to me! I haven't got a clue what there on about!!
Any ideas please & another question: if I were to reinstall Outlook Express
do I have to back up my original emails & where to? I have XP home. Many
thanks.

It's a valid question. The original poster said:

error
I
: receive from MAILER-DAEMON: Remote host said: 550-X-Mime-Error.Serious
MIME
: defect detected.

If the file is actually named jpg.1.35mb, it will likely trigger
antispam/antivirus tools because it appears to have a double extension *and* it
looks like an attachment with an unknown file type (.35mb) designed to *look
like* a jpg.

Awareness is free.

That was the exact reason that I asked.
The original poster could have said, with attachment (jpg 1.35mb) or with
jpg attachment (1.35mb).

Excuse me, why are you giving me this information? Is it relevant to my
question? If so please explain. Cos now I'm even more confused.
