"ALL" attachments from Yahoo are NOT coming thru to OE. As stated previously
in a previous post, you can look at the message via properties and see there
is an attachment and what it should be such as JPG or DOC...etc.
This involves OE set for Bellsouth.net. mail. I have many friends & family
trying to send attachments from Yahoo and about 1/2 use the Yahoo web page
and the other 1/2 use Yahoo thru OE. It appears to make no difference which
way it is sent. I have even set-up a Yahoo email address and attempted to
send many different types of files. They do not come thru on OE, BUT here is
the strange part, I can go to the BellSouth Web page for email and the
attachment is there and retrievable.
This has the appearance of being an OE issue.
NEED HELP ON THIS ASAP PLEASE

Hi Eric,

On the surface it would appear to be a Yahoo issue. Some people were
trying to make sense of it at:

http://www.godiscussions.com/forum/s...?t=2838&page=2

Someone reported success in receiving an attachment after forwarding the
message to another account.

A good first step would be to get one of these message files to Michael
Santovec so he can examine the headers.

I'm able to send attachments from Yahoo web mail to my OE without
problem. So I don't think there is any general Yahoo problem.

It's probably some combination of Yahoo specific headers with the user's
ISP and/or user installed anti-virus or anti-spam software.

I'm having the same exact issue as you. Same conditions, bellsouth.net
address with OE 6.0.

I've checked virus scans, uninstalled/reinstalled OE, and even system
restored in case of system changes from another user on my computer. Nothing
has changed that I'm aware of.

I did find potential spyware that caused something but it has been removed
so I don't think it is the problem now.

I have gone further and used Netscape and yahoo attachments come through
there no problem whatsoever so it is definitely a OE problem now. It's not
yahoo or bellsouth. I've been testing this all day long as I have a yahoo
account myself and sending back and forth and trying to receive something
from the yahoo account and can't.

I've looked everywhere and can't find anything about this issue. Hope
someone find something because I can't.
