You haven't really said what you *do* see. Are you sure these messages
have attachments? What kind of attachments are you expecting? Do you see
a link at the top of the message window to "Get entire message"?

It seems to have cleared up after I did a database rebuild, and removed some foreign language fonts. I don't know what exactly did the trick. In answer to the question I would frequently see a message that said partial message, I would reconnect to get the full message, and all that was still there was the header box, with a completely empty content box below. But as I said, it's working better now.
