Hello !

Once in a while, I have a problem with pictures sent with OE6 : my
correspondant receives pages of code, instead of an image.

Does the problem come from my side, or from the other side ? What should be
done ?

Thanks

Are you virus scanning out going email?

how large are the images, large images may be broken into pieces if (default
60KB) large then need to be "combine and decode"ed to be displayed. turn off
or change the setting at
tools
accounts
mail

advanced
[x] break apart messages larger than [xxxxx]

Yes, I have Kaspersky, and I scan outgoing mail as well as incoming mail.
But when I send the same images that gave problem to myself (using a
different address), there is no problem.

Yes, the last images that gave me problems are about 900 Ko. But the box
requiring large messages to be broken is unchecken (and applies only to
incoming mail, anyway : when I send the images to myself, there is no
problem)

I will type this slowly, so that you can follow along
stop me if I get ahead of you
and point out that the "break apart" tab is under the heading "Sending"
pause

Dumb as a stump

Sorry. I mistyped : I meant the command applies to the sent mail (there is
no such command for incoming mail...)

I confirm : the command to break apart large messages is unchecked (outgoing
mail)

Does this happen with only one recipient?

Regardless of whether or not it is the cause, e-mail scanning should never
be used with Outlook Express. They are not compatible with each other and it
is not needed.

No, it has happened with several different recipients

OK. Thanks. I will try to scan only incoming mail.

That includes incoming mail. The OE newsgroups are filled with horror
stories about this. It's a ticking time bomb.
