I have an original copy of the message, untouched by Pomona, and I can't find anything wrong with it.

I didn't send it that way on purpose. My mail reader shows just the ICO and JPG attachments! Where did the other 2 come from?

The fact that you don't see my message as rich-text must be due to the mail reader you're using. I seem to recall when we used CCMail here that rich-text (or HTML) files came "chopped-up" like the way you describe.

Obviously, Microsquish doesn't occupy much space in your life. (I'm leaning towards following your example...at home. I'm going to try Pegasus I think.)

If you'd like to try an experiment, I can send you my original message and you can see what sort of pieces your reader splits it into.
