So, Marion, how do you know that was my last response? Hmmm?
Well, emails from Macs are a bit strange, "I must say," as Ed Grimley might
have written. They are a pain to trim, if Forwarding or Replying.
Possibly there is a setting that she is unaware of; but, I doubt
it. ;Either she is "Forwarding as an Attachment," or is Forwarding an email
she received with an Attachment. The best thing to do is to
observe the address information in the body carefully, in the email ;you
receive from her. That should give you the answer.
It may be helpful for you to get another email account, e.g., a Google
account. Google is more functional than many web based email services. Then you
could send emails to your Google account, with Attachments, Forwarded emails
with Attachments, etc. It may help you to figure it out, and will be an
interesting experiment. Also, you might want to find the Properties setting in
your email ;browser window, and read the Properties of her email, if at all
possible. At least you might discover what program or service she uses
to send. That may be a clue. Asking her will probably not be too helpful, I
gather.
But, even if you figure it all out, she may not be interested in being
helpful. It might be best to grit your teeth, and just hit "Delete!"

Robert,
Your last response DID come into my inbox, and I
have read the
material in the links inserted by Karl. ; Thanks.
Now we'll just have
to wait for AT&T to get their act
together.
I have another email question unrelated to the problem we
have been
discussing. ; I have a friend who sends me many forwards and
they
always come in attachments. This has become very annoying to me.
She
says she NEVER sends attachments, nor do they come to her
that way.
Usually it takes at least three trys before they open until I
decide
it's not worth it. It does'nt matter if it contains graphics or
is
just text.
I've wondered if it's her settings or mine or
neither. She has a Mac,
ISP is Verizon, though that is probably not
relevant. Can anyone give
me a clue as to why this happens?
Thanks.
Marion
