Multiple identical emails when sending picture (jpq) attachment

Z

Zelfan

Since last week, every time that I send an email with a picture attachment to
one recipient, recipient receives anywhere from 6 to 25 identical emails
which cannot be opened.
I use Windows XP with Outlook Express 6 and Kaspersky Internet Security 7
which I installed last September and never did I have this problem until last
week. I have ran the Anti Virus manually, cleared all cookies, temporary
files, etc and still have this problem. Any advise as what might be causing
this behaviour all of a sudden and how to fix it will be greatly appreciated.

The picture might be big enough that with the default settings, the message
splits into several parts.

Also, this newsgroup is intended for Windows Mail under Vista, not
Outlook Express under XP.

I don't know what you mean by the picture spliting up. The recipient cannot
see anyone.That had never happened before even though I have sent other
pictures in the past and I have not changed any settings. As a matter of
fact, the same thing happened when I tried to send a friend of mine an email
from an internet site.

I was not aware that this was not the right group. This is the one the came
up when I entered outlook express. Sorry.

In Windows Mail, when the message splits up, the first part may appear
as a picture, but the other parts appear as random text.

I think the newsgroup you should use is one of the following:

microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress

Thanks mikey. I did as you advised and it seems to be working. I just resent
some of the emails that we being received with many duplicates and the
recipients only got one this time.

I don't know what I would have done without your help.
