By chance there is an Email Control setting that regulate the attachment
of files and other SECURITY options that may limit what and how files
are uploaded?

I do know that a friend of mine uses Yahoo as his mail and he sends me
ODT files many times a month

I will check with him and ask what his settings are

I was able to attach the file with Yahoo Mail Beta, but not the current Yahoo Mail version. Error message stated that myresume.odt file could not be attached. I don't have the exact wording.

Thank you,

Jeff Sherman

Thank you for your response. I found the programs after sending my
inquiry. I was able to open and use Writer. However, I was
disappointed to find that I could not attach the resume I created to
an email. I use Windows XP.

Can you please explain in more detail what problem you have attaching
Writer documents to emails? I have many customers using Writer under
Windows XP, who send dozens of Writer documents as email attachments
every day and they do not experience any difficulties.

Let me take a guess. Are you are saying can attach Writer documents to
your emails, but your recipients cannot open the attachment in MS Word?
If this is the case, please read the following:
http://user-faq.openoffice.org/faq/ar01s02.html#SAVE_AS_DOC
If you want to use the "File -> Send -> Document As Email..." option to
send your resume (or whatever) in MS Word format, you must change the
settings under "Tool -> Options -> Load Save -> General -> Default File
Format -> Always save as..." from OOo Writer to MS Word.

If your recipients only need to read the document (not edit it), then
you could use the "File -> Send -> Document as PDF Attachment..".

Hope this helps.

Dave
