ohhhh. i not read the attachment warning.


At Fri Jan 28 22:04:47 2005 the virus scanner said:
   External message bodies cannot be scanned and are removed


That is the problem External Body. :( sorry for not read this. i feel
like a dumb...

in this case, setting External Body = no    solve the problem? or i dont
have a solution for that?
