Help!

Serves me right for using an unsupported mail client mutter mutter mutter.

Anyway. Mozilla has spontaneously decided to start ignoring email attachments. On messages received before it took this decision, it still shows the paperclip icon in the message list window, but the attachments themselves no longer appear in preview pane. On messages received since, there's no sign at all of them containing attachments.

When I actually open a messages (of any vintage), the window is completely empty and doesn't even show the message contents (which do appear in preview).

Anyone got any thoughts?

OK, I've done a quick websearch on this and there are no known issues with Mozilla 1.3 which sound like what you describe.

There was a bug in 1.3a in which attachments might not be displayed if there were 2 or more, but that seems unlikely.

Also, Mozilla has a variable setting for how attachments are displayed. If you've selected "inline" this might cause odd effects.

But mostly it all sound very odd.

Oh, thank you! I hadn't got round to doing a search yet (figured it was easier to ask people ;-)

My current theory is that my computer is just strange. It spent all of yesterday crashing at random, so I'm probably unfairly maligning Mozilla. I might have a go at uninstalling it and reinstalling it tomorrow, and see if that works. Otherwise, I'm just going to admit defeat and use Netscape ;-(
