Thread Name: Tech: E-mail attachment ATT00030(229B)?
Subject: Tech: E-mail attachment ATT00030(229B)?
I sent an e-mail with no attachments, and it arrived with an attachment named ATT00030.txt(229B).

From what I've read, if it just was called ATT00030.txt, it would be a file created by her e-mail program to handle something Eudora sent along with my e-mail, and it would be harmless.

If it was called ATT00030.txt.src or ATT0030.txt.exe it would be a virus.

But what the heck is this 229B? Anyone heard of it? Could it be something else her e-mail program stuck onto it? I don't know what program she uses, guess I'll ask her.

Thanks,
Rita F
