John W... Thanks, John... I''m on a 34,000 + bps USRobotics modem, and since I work for Microsoft, wellllllll.... I've gotten used to using their products. I know there're setting in the Exchange program which could be tweaked and I'd prolly be able to d/load just about anything, but since graphics haven't been anything I'm particularly interested in (a sacrilege, I know) <grin>, I just left Exchange with the default settings. I CAN, by the way, easily get graphics sent intra-MSN.... and they show up just fine... But not graphics sent over the Internet.

It sounds like you are using either a 2400 bps or 9600 bps modem. You might think of upgrading to a 14.4 modem, usually about $50.00. This will improve the speed of the download. If you have Web access via a browser you can download Eudora Lite or Pegasus E-Mail programs which can handle attachments easily. These programs are available as freeware ie no charge.
