JPG attachments do not always display in TB, especially if they are large. They show up blank, or show something like "JPG Err #68". Saving them to disk results in the top portion (some random amount of it) being visible, and the rest of the image corrupt. ZIP files do not open; WinRAR usually reports a "premature end of file". PP> Have you tried opening them from within TB!? Yes. Both JPG's (by clicking on the tabs at the bottom of the window) and ZIP files (by double-clicking it). PP> Have you tried saving them and opening later? Yes. The files I save via my ISP's webmail interface (which open just fine) are larger than if I save the file from the exact same message as received by TB! For example, a recent ZIP was 538,085 bytes when downloaded via the webmail interface (which also utilizes POP3, just like TB!) and only 537,978 bytes when saved from TB!. Note that I do not have any problem sending large attachments from TB!; that has always worked without trouble.

Nope, I do not run any antivirus software on my Win2K SP2 box. And I *just* did a fresh install of Win2K last week (i.e., reformatted the drive and started over completely; I started getting the BSOD on startup with INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE and could not find a way to repair it) so it isn't likely that I have corrupt DLL's or other "cruft" in my system that is causing the problem. I have received a private email from another individual who is experiencing the exact same problem, so at least I know it isn't just me. ** Gerard [20020418 07:32] writes: G> Please try forwarding the attachment to someone, before you do G> anything else with it, and see if they can open it.

Nope, once I save the file to disk, there is already data missing (as shown in the example above). So I'm still looking for explanations/solutions. :) -- Eddy __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
