I must be doing something wrong but don't know what. I want to add a

sound
file to an e-mail so I go to Format, background, sound and specify a file.
It plays fine at my end but when I send the e-mail but never works at the
other end for any addressee. Is there a secret to this or does it not

work
that way? I usually send an mp3 file because of the file size. Does it
need to be a wav file? Seems very inefficient is that is the problem.
Thanks for your help.
JB

Hi "AlmostBob".

Are you referring to the program "Switch" that I recommended? If so, I
would simply add that I use "Switch" frequently and have experienced no
problems.

No Andy my reply was to the OP
not to put annoying background music
behind emails

Switch is fast, doesnt add pops and noise, and runs on my pc, 'A Good Thing'

I get p-d off by music, emoticons, free advertising,
and unneccessary garbage that people think I must have so put it in
email, so that HiMum is 500K.
Also loath flash, java, animations that load before the page,
background images, graphic buttons,
counters, banner ads, and google analytics
(why should I allow monitor javascripts on my pc.
Precisely the defininition of spyware

Thanks "Almost Bob" for clearing that up.
Incidentally, I think you were rather hard on "JTB" for his wish to send
background music with his E-Mails. Apparently you don't like the idea, but
after all, I'm sure he wasn't planning to send them to you.
