Hey there....

Heres my problem, I have a contact that i cannot receive attachments from,
only 1 contact, All my other contacts have no problems sending me pictures,
or videos.

The one contact cannot send me anything in an attachment form, i have him
added as a safe sender but that does not help, any ideas from the guru's out
there?

thanks for your time

If the mail was sent from Outlook using Outlook's RTF format then Outlook
Express will never find the attachment. Outlook Express does not understand
Outlook's RTF format. Ask the Outlook user to please use Plain Text,
especially when sending attachments.
