I just changed over to Outlook 2003 from Windows Mail. Now when certain
people send me pictures inline, they come to me as pages and pages text, like
this:

Content-Type: image/jpeg; name=snow
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Description: snow 2-23-10 1.jpg
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="snow 2-23-10 1.jpg"

................ and this goes on and on and on making the email size HUGE!

HELP! How do I (or they) make it stop?

Thank you,

This is usually caused by your antivirus program interfering with the mail
data. To fix it for future messages, uninstall your AV program and reinstall
it without the mail scanning feature. You will be just as safe.
