Hello,

I've received an email who has been broken in three parts. I know that
the mail has been send by MS Outlook Express (limit 1 MB in
Outlook Express) and I use MS Outlook.
How can I join those three attachments (mails) together?

Thanks for a quick answer and all the best in 2004!

PS:
see help paragraph below from MS Outlook Express about this topic,
but my e-mail program didn't combine them into one message.


To send large messages
Many e-mail and news servers limit the size of the messages you can
receive
and send. Usually this limit is one megabyte (1 MB) per message,
including
all attached files.
With Outlook Express, you can send large messages or files to e-mail
and
news servers that have size limits, by breaking the messages into
smaller
ones. When the group of messages is received, the e-mail program
combines
them into one message.
On the Tools menu, click Accounts.
On either the Mail or News tab, click Properties.
On the Advanced tab, select the Break apart messages larger than x KB
check
box and then enter the maximum file size the server will allow.

I've never encountered such a limit in Outlook Express.

Outlook doesn't have that feature. I'm assuming that each message has an
undecipherable attachment or contains portions of a UU- or MIME-encoded
message. Open each message (or attachment, as the case may be) and
cut/paste the portions into a single file (in Notepad, for example). Save
that file and then get yourself a decoding program, like UUD32WIN from
