One of my sons is using an iMac with OS 10.4.8 and has Mail has his client.
I use Eudora as my mail client.
When he sends me an email with an attachment the attachment goes to the Parts Folder in the Eudora Folder. Clearly Eudora considers the attachment as an item of a different type.

As other people sending me attachments result in their attachment going to my specified Attachments folder I am wondering what setting my son might be using in Mail that causes Eudora to place it in the Parts Folder.

I am not familiar with Mail, but perhaps someone who is might be able to make a suggestion.

Thank you.

There does not appear to be any preference in Mail that would affect an attachment , so I wonder ...... does your son have files with names that include or exclude the
file extension name..    eg       .jpg   .doc   .xls

and do the other attachments include or exclude the file extansion  ?

The photos he sends have been processed in Photoshop (CS) and the typical accompanying info is:

Content-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Content-Type: image/jpeg;
        x-mac-type=4A504547;
        x-unix-mode=0644;
        x-mac-creator=3842494D;
        name=MumKaye.jpg
Content-Disposition: inline;
        filename=MumKaye.jpg
The file located in Eudora Parts folder is, in this instance, named MumKaye.jpg
I am not aware of any inclusions or exclusions being applied. Where would he do that?

In all other cases (other senders) the extension is shown.
