Outlook Express Background sound problem

Patrick · Joined: 12 Aug 2007 Posts: 14

Hello:

I have placed sound in the background of many emails on my other computer,
but I just installed this new computer and I can not insert sound so it will
play in the background of email that I send.

I can select the file, for example .mid and insert it, but it will not play
on my computer or on the recipients computer.

I have Windows XP Pro and Microsoft Office 2003 installed.

I select Format, Background, Sound, file type .mid and the file... and even
though I select it the sound will not play?

Is there something I should be specifying somewhere to "activate" this
option/feature? I don't recall having to do it in the past?

Thanks so very much for your time and consideration,

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

My dad is having a similar problem and wondered if you were able to get
yours resolved. He can send an email with a music file as background, but
nobody can hear the sound when they receive his email. If he sends it to
himself it seems to work on his computer. I've tried all the available
fixes, but so far, no luck. Let me know if you had any luck, thanks
