Don,
I've sent several test attachments to our KWM dev box, from Outlook 2000.
All work fine for me with the exception of those sent with Rich Text
formatting, which causes the attachments to not be visible at all. The
plain text and HTML messages sent with jpeg and Word Doc attachments came
through just fine.
Try logging in at http://komodo.hksi.net/ with demo and blue, and look at
the demo messages and attachments. If you can view them just fine, then
the problem you're seeing is due to the sending client (check your
encoding method - I prefer NONE with plain-text formatting). If you cannot
view them, then it's a problem with your browser.
There are MANY variables at play, most of them on the sending end, when
sending/receiving attachments. Aside from IMail's problems with RTF
(doesn't surprise me, it's an arcane standard fully supported only by
Microsoft), standard attachments seem to be working well in IMail 7.
