Just starting happening in the past ten days. Using 10.4.4, Apple Mail.



Anyone receiving MAc or PC gets a corrupt file. Never had this before. Any thoughts?

    Are you dragging and dropping or attaching them?

    Are they corrupt even if you compress them to .zip or .sit?

    Is this a known problem?

    Try mailing one to yourself?



    And if it arrives corrupt, make a new user account, send from there, and see if it is still corrupt. If so, trash Mail preferences.

    Ditto to above post. But sometimes I've found that dragging and dropping isn't always good when sending stuff to windows users. Don't know why. So now, I attach things and click the checkbox for windows friendly attachments...
