I don't think that would be it in this case, because the file name on the file she received was not the same as what I sent. Although I didn't go out to her place and check it. My husband then sent the same file to her with Netscape and she received it without a problem. I think she uses Netscape in Windows, but I'm not sure. It is definitely a problem caused by Evo in some way, it is just a question of HOW evo is doing this. But I'm not smart enough to figure that out. :-) Other than that, I love Evolution. I have no problems with all the tar files I send through it. Just when I sent the .doc it borked. I sent a copy to myself and got it fine. Evo said it was a Microsoft Word File. _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
