Stick an enormous length of anything in the subject field of an Outlook Express mail message and add some text to the body of the message and press send. It arrives with what looks like an attachment (actually looks like the *.txt icon), however with the file name of the (enormously lengthy) subject you just gave it. Further the text you placed in the body before pressing send is no longer there and can be found inside of the attachment. Finally the message headers of the sent/arrived email, indicate no attachments (instead of the usual Content-Disposition:attachment). Someone may want to force some machine code into this oddity and see what happens. Occurring on a win98 iE5.5. fully patched and unpdated and OE5.5. 5.50.4522.1200 patched and updated.
