This kind of old tricks had been around for so many years, I received several messages 5 years ago and now it seems to start circulating once more.

I wish it didn't have to end up this way for the poor dogs, I am surprised that
SPCA did not intervened.

Hi Mac users!

Have you encountered attachment problems with your Gmail? Yes I did!

I just set up a new Gmail account and when I tried to email 2 jpeg files (size: 531KB & 96KB) to a friend,
both attachments went missing. WHY? Can someone help me solve it ?

Thank you in advance.
