but it just won't email.

I recall seeing this problem once before, but it was a problem on the server, which just wouldn't accept certain types of files. My guess is that it was some futile attempt by an amateur Microsoft coder to prevent viruses. I ended up zipping the file up, and it went thru. As sauog said, how do you know it dosn't send? What error messages do you get, and where in the script does it appear?

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.
