Firstly try making the email again from scratch and re-attach the file see if you get the same problem as this may shed some light on possible causes for the experts on here.
 
I have been having loads of problems with this but I am fairly sure it is a client problem, when it happens with an outlook user they get a message informing them that the attachment is unsafe and cannot be opened, it used to just affect logical file types such as .exe/.com/.vbs etc but now we are having people getting the message with .jpg/.gif and .txt which is really taking the pi??.
 
On Outlook express it gets worse they don't even get the message or any indication that there was an attachment at all we recently had someone who has been sending his CV out for jobs and it appears that hardly any of the mails arrived with an attachment, which considering he is applying for IT jobs will make him look like an idiot.
 
We have found that in every single case we have seen the user can send the same mail back to themselves with the attachment in place.
 
When we tried to reproduce the effects with all current MS security patches in place we also have big problems sending attachments, but Hotmail and Yahoo mail have no problems with any of the attachments.
 
What is going on is it a Microsoft conspiracy to make everyone use online mail services and then start charging for the service ?????
 
Has anyone else had similar problems

Subject: [IMail Forum] the case of the missing attachment

We're running Imail 7.05 on Win 2K SP2...

Anyway, when we try to forward an email with an attachment, it is "removed"
from the message for some reason. I would have expected to see the attached
file on yet to be forwarded message. Instead only the message body and
sibject are present in the new message.
