Windows mail did not work anymore on my main account in Windows Vista.
All sollutions presented here did not work, including Live Mail.
So I created a new account and hoped my problems would be over. But
now, although mail seems to work, attachments I receive wont open. I
see the right icons but when I doubleclick nothing happens. When I
choose to save the attachments it says I should check diskspace, but I
can see no problem there. But I can't save them and thus not open
them. I've changed the settings in security tab, but that doesn't make
any difference.
Has anyone any idea?
Many thanks.

Which antivirus are you running? Some of them are not fully compatible
with Windows Mail.

Guess what,
I installed a newer version of AVG (8.0) and all is working well.
Thanx for setting me on the right track!!

If your AVG develops that problem again, do the following:
Uninstall it, then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which then
allows you to unselect installing its troublesome email scanning
module.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
