One of my mates thought it was funny to send me a 20MB attachment with an e-mail. (Hillarious NOT) I connect with a 56k modem and this tied Outlook Express up completely until it was completely downloaded.
I know that if I double click in the bottom left corner where it says "Receiving Mail", then the box opens to tell me which account is being checked, and if I hover over the account that is being checked, it tells me the size of the e-mail, but..........
My questions are :-
1) How can I tell WHO a message is from while it is being received ?
2) How can I Stop such a large file coming through if I choose to AFTER it has started to download, without it starting up again next time I click Send/Receive
Thanks in advance
