When trying to send a mail message from Outlook 97 with an attachment gets returned with No Transport Provider Was Available for delivery to this mail recipient. Strange thing is that e-mails without attachments work just fine. Any Suggestions??

My first thought involves the newest Outlook security patches. Check with the recipient to see if they are having other problems receiving .DOC, .EXE, etc.
Here is an article that may also offer some suggestions.

Thanks for the suggestion, but the recipients can receive e-mail from most others fine, even with attachments. See new posting for update to this problem.

I just found that my problem is only with Outlook 97. I can send by using the old Internet Mail program just fine and the recipients can get the attachments. I've tried to make sure that the mails are going out as plain text format. I installed the Internet Mail Update. Thanks again folks.
