I have a slow modem connection at home and would like to be able to read the
whole message before deciding if I want to download the attachment, is that possible? As it is now, it seems outlook fetches the attachments before it displays the message body. /Rickard |

What about IMAP? I have access to a webmail (Squirrelmail) to which I
connect; there I can read the message without downloading the attachment. /Rickard "Brian Tillman" skrev: R E Bensow R E wrote: I have a slow modem connection at home and would like to be able to read the whole message before deciding if I want to download the attachment, is that possible? As it is now, it seems outlook fetches the attachments before it displays the message body. In fact, attachments are part of the body of any mail message, so I can't see how any POP client can download only a portion of a mail message. -- Brian Tillman |

You can download the headers and then mark the items for which you want to download the remainer, but that will also be the entire body of the mesage. Webmail is different. The web server has the luxury of presenting the message in any form it chooses and has already decoded the various pieces of the message body when it presents them. In essence, it has "downloaded" and rendered the message when it presents it to the web browser, just like Outlook wil present the body and attachment as different pieces when it presents it to you. -- Brian Tillman |
