Dear All, I'm having problems using VM and accessing attachments in messages sent from apple mail. VM just simply doesn't see the attachment and provides no way of accessing it that I can find. In fact, it gives no real indication there is even an attachment apart from a small glyph which you cannot do anything with. If you hit D to show the raw data, you can see the following - > <headers snipped> > To: Tim Cross <tcross@xxxxx> > Subject: Remarks 1 of 3 > Date: Thu, 21 Dec 2006 10:55:55 +1100 > --Apple-Mail-9--626804718 > CONTENT-TRANSFER-ENCODING: quoted-printable > Content-Type: text/plain; > charset=UTF-8; > delsp=yes; > format=flowed > Tim, > The first of three files.

I don't seem to have problems with attachments from other UMAs and this one only appears to have started recently (within the last couple of months I think). I have played around with the various MIME variables in VM, but with no luck. help appreciated as I really don't want to have to give up VM! Tim -- tcross (at) rapttech dot com dot au
