And a very good thought Bob. Unfortunately I had already done that. It
seems that IE 5 and the new 7.03 iteration is mucking things up. It is odd
that NN is doing something better than IE. That is just so far removed from
the norm these days.

Don,
We have alot of macs too. One thing to check is if Internet Preferences
have file mappings for extensions on attachments. Our's are hosed too
unless we include the file extension and map it to the correct type/creator
with internet config or preferences in IE.
Just a thought...bob
