Ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup. microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
is one.

Firstly this is not an OE group - Outlook and Outlook Express are two
entirely different programs despite the similar name.

I suspect that your sender is sending using Outlook (not Express) and is
sending in the Outlook default email format - Rich Text. Only Outlook (not
OE) can see attachments in this email format. Get your sender to re-send the
message in either plain text or HTML and see if that helps.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click

Good luck!
