Since using Vista, I am having trouble receiving email attachments in some
instances. I use Outlook 2003. The problem has arisen when the
sender is using XP/Thunderbird/ and XP/Eudora address to send email. A mate
using
Vista/Outlook 2003 also cannot get attachments from the same sender.
When I say the the attachments don't come thru they are there, but still
encoded. ie I see a couple of meg of ASCII characters.

indicate that this is not an isolated incident. And the problem *seems* to
be triggered only when the recipient is in the BCC field.

So the problem occurs with the combination of Vista/Outlook2003 and BCC

Anyone know what is the solution?
