Default attachment inside attachment

One friend of mine forwards emails to me, and it's forwarded as an
attachment... so I open it and it's another blank email with an attachment..
sometimes it's 6 or more until I get to the attachment... today I opened 8
or 9 and gave up.... so what is he doing wrong....

Default Re: attachment inside attachment

If they are from an AOL or Compuserve user, (some other servers are changing
too), they may be layered as many times as it has been forwarded. When you
open an attachment and only see a blank page, keep putting the cursor on the
text in the attachment line / Right click / Open. Keep doing this and you'll
eventually get to the original attachment and be able to view it.

You can also highlight the message header and press Ctrl & F3 to just read
the text of the message.
