Default Corrupt file in OE 6.0

When sending an email with a photo attachment to myself I get an error
message, "unknown file type" and can not open the photograph. In addition, I
am sent at least a dozen copies of the same email and error message at which
point I also get an error message from Symantec which reads, " Your email
message was unable to be sent because your mail server recjected the sender."
(1003,7).
I am able to send text attachments with no trouble but really do need to fix
OE so that I can send graphics too. I need help in simple to follow
step-by-step non technical language. Can anyone help please? Thanks much.

Its Symantec that is likely the problem. You need to turn off email
scanning. See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

Default Corrupt file in OE 6.0

Steve,
I turned off both incoming and outgoing email scanning, sent a message with
photo attachment to myself and got the same results...i.e. ten copies of the
message, unable to open it and a considerable amount of frustration.
Any other possibilities? Thanks much in adance.

- Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Advanced uncheck the break apart
option

With that option enabled large messages are broken into smaller
messages. Each message has part of the attachment. That will confuse
anti-virus for scanning the attachment. It will also appear to your ISP
that you are sending many messages and they apparently have a limit on
the number of messages at a time as a spam control effort.

I had the break apart option originally checked for 2000 kb. Unchecking it
and sending a photo resulted in 83 error messages from Symantec indicating
the file was too large to send. Any other possibilities?

It doesn't sound as if you disabled email scanning.

Try disabling it again or just uninstall Symantec as its known to cause
other problems. (www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).

Also, you may need to remove your mail account, close OE, and then add it
back again to fix what Symantec did to your mail account.

Also try deleting the outbox.dbx file (hidden) with OE closed. That could
have become corrupted. OE will make a new one.

Hi Frank,
I just went back to tools, unchecked break apart, turned off the computer,
re-started and sent another message with a photoshop image attachment and
received an error message from Symantec "unable to be sent because message
exceeded maximum size of 552". Not a direct quote, but close enough. BTW this
file is 15 megs. I do not have problems sending JPEGs. Suggestions?
