multi-part mail messages don't decode??

I received a multi-part message that would not combine and decode properly
with Windows Mail (Vista Home Basic). The combine and decode function was
selected after selecting the multiple parts. Box pops up indicating the
order of the parts which were in correct order. Accepting this, only got a
message with one of the parts as a result. The attached file was not
useable.

For reference, I also have an XP Pro machine running Windows LIVE Mail. This
machine correctly combined and decoded the message parts into a good file.

Is this a bug in Windows Mail or do I have to configure something?

Thanks in advance - Oppie
 
I would suspect that one or more of the parts of that specific message are
corrupt or damaged. I use "combine and decode" all the time with no
problems.
