Thanks,
I'm very careful to save them as Word 2000/XP files, as the recipients
are using Windows with Word. I've tried also using the Word 95 format
too, but the same result. An attachment appears, but when opened it's a
blank file.
I can send Word files to Windoze machines on my network via the external
ISP email server, but beyond that, they are arriving as blanks more and
more often.
