I too, have never had any problems opening attachments from K9. I am currently using version 5.002. I can open pdf files, jpg files, or anything else that is attached to an email.
Are you downloading the entire message? Maybe it is a problem with Adobe. Try a different pdf reader. I am using EZpdf Reader. Hope that helps.

In K-9, what do you have set for "storage location" on an account under: - settings - account settings - storage -- regular internal or external? In Adobe Reader, under settings, what do you have set for "Acrobat.com Cache Location" -- internal or SD card? It appears that you can set either of these to external, whether an external location is available or not. Mine are all set to "internal". - Richard -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the K-9 Mail Users List.
