I know the loop thingy works as I received something from someone else and it played as intended. I originally sent this to someone last night, but have no idea if in fact, it did play. Just pressing enter on it in my send folder, it did not. I do use OE and been doing this process clear back on win/98. RTF/HTML is checked, plain text on read page in tools/options is not checked. I'll try sending it to someone see if they hear it. Thanks for the help and for that web site.

What mail client software are you using? Is the email format set to rich text/HTML? If using outlook express/windows mail, it should default to looping/playing at least once automatically. Lastly, have you tried sending the message to someone else to make sure it's not your mail server that's blocking it, or that your mail client software isn't set to do something like display all messages in plain text or something?
