if, like me you sent email with pdf, gif and jpeg attachments all day using apple mail you will – no doubt – run into this problem. mail doesn’t attach these files, even if you select “send windows friendly attachments” it embeds them. no problem at my end but at the other (windoze) end the attachments can’t be saved.

this has created endless “please resend as an attachment” email requests from customers, magazines, etc etc. i had resorted to resending from gmail which was a bit of a fudge but it worked. nevertheless it was a far from ideal situation having to send many emails twice.

then i found mails “must have” plugin  Mail Attachments Iconizer!

it basically allows you to specify how attachments are handled and it works a treat. you can give it a whirl for free. but i bought it after trying it for about 10 minutes!
