Windows Live Mail No attachments from some senders.
I am unable to receive attachments from two senders using Windows Live Mail email on one computer. It receives the email the email in question with no attachments. There are NO ERROR MESSAGES. It does receive attachments from other senders.
I have a second email account, using Windows Live Mail and it receives the attachments that the first comuter did not receive. Both Windows Live Mail settings are set up exactly the same. Both compuers are Dell Vostro 460. Both have Mcafee VirusScan + AntiSpyware
Enterprise 8.8. Both email accounts are going to the same email server.
The senders email server is a different email server than the receivers email server. I have tried to uncheck the Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus. This did not help.
If I look at the account on the web the attachments are there. But when it downloads the email to the computer the atachments are not there.
Thanks for any help.
It appears that Outlook 2011 (up to date with patches) will not receive mail from a server with a self-signed (and therefore not trusted) certificate. When I send mail I am prompted to trust it or not: This works, but when Outlook is quit and relaunched,
the trusted state is forgotten (this might be a problem with Apple Keychain). It's an annoyance, but at least I can send mail.
In receiving, I am not prompted at all, and no mail arrives. No error is written to the Errors window. Also, when sending or receiving, Outlook usually has a progress indicator in the lower right. It's there for sending, but nothing happens at all when I click
"send & receive" and there's nothing to send.
When I select Tools > IMAP Folders, the server appears on the left, but no folders appear on the right. (I can view them in Apple Mail.) I have compared my settings to a document I maintain of email server settings, and everything matches. The server does not
use nonstandard port numbers.
And finally, I noted that when I view the settings in the Preferences window there is a yellow dot next to the server name. I'm assuming that yellow means a problem is indicated.
