You did post it, and I did answer it. (however, I don't honestly recall if my answer ever came thru, so maybe the failure wasn't on your end). >Suddenly yesterday the same thing happened again. I checked to see what >type of email it was in the middle of downloading and it was something >from Hotmail again with an attachment. It was from a different person so >I don't think it's a virus. > >Anybody ever hear of anything like this? Yes. This is known. The Temp Incoming files can be "bad" and cause Emailer to crash. At the moment there are two known reasons for this. 1: The email contains an attachment with a file name longer than 31 characters. 2: The email has been forwarded many times and not had its MIME headers removed, so now the headers are more than 9 layers deep. In both cases, Temp Reader (you can get it from my web site), can open the Temp Incoming folder, detect that it is a bad file, and offer to fix it (as well as show you the contents, and give you the choice of saving it to text). There may be other reasons a Temp Incoming file can be bad, but currently those are the only two problems I have seen. If anyone finds a bad Temp Incoming file that Temp Reader can't fix, I'd love to have a copy of it so I can expand Temp Reader's abilities (just send the file to me as an attachment to an email). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
