Default I can't save any attachments using winmail.

I get a message saying 'The command failed to execute'. It then takes me to
the communities group with a suggestion to buy Outlook 2003!! Has anyone
got a better solution. I can't access any attachments on new mails or
existing ones since the upgrade to Vista.

Thanks in advance
David

Make sure you don't have antivirus software set to scan email. That seems
to be causing many problems for WinMail users. See
www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 It seems to be worse for WinMail in some
respects.

Also see point 1 on that page to make sure you have attachment saving
permitted.
