Default Attachments from Outlook to Outlook Express not going through

I got a laptop for Christmas (which I love), and I'm using Outlook for email.
My problem is that attachments (Word documents, images, JPEG's) are not
received by Outlook Express users. The text goes through, but there is no
sign of an attachment.

Any help? Dell wanted to charge me $99 to answer the software question.

Thanks,
Rebecca

Do not send mail is Outlook's "Rich-Text" format. Use instead
"Only-Text" or "HTML". To change the format go to

Tools | Options | E-Mail-Format

Thank you SO much! That was the only setting that I could figure out that it
would likely be, but I wasn't for sure. That change in settings did the
trick!

Much Appreciation,
Rebecca
