I have no idea whatsoever why, but I have never gotten an attachment from anyone on our List, yet I get them (and send them) everyday from my boss (including frequent photos of his first grandchild) and others. And there's never any "code" or whatever is messing up the works with some of you out there, so no downloading slowness or anything. Maybe there is some setting that was selected when we signed onto the List, rather than when we set up our e-mail accounts. Somebody call Bill. Where the hell is that man when we need him? Maybe Barb could give him a jingle. BBA (51,3+)
