Incomplete email attachments

[DrNitun]

Hello,

I was forwarded two .pdf documents, via email, to my Lumia 1020 (Windows Phone 8). The two documents did show as attached files in my inbox. However, when trying to open the files, error showed that these files were not valid .pdf's. But they are!

I went onto my laptop (Windows 8.1) and was able to not only receive the same email, but successfully opening the 2 .pdf's. Why did these emails come with broken attachments in my Lumia inbox and not on my laptop inbox (using the default mail client)? One attachment was 3.20MB and the other was 7.00MB. By the way, my inbox is with Yahoo! and I am a Yahoo! Plus subscriber so I do not believe these files were too big for my inbox.

Any thoughts??

Were you using WiFi or mobile network when you attempted to download the attachments on your 1020?

Laura,

I was on my AT&T mobile network to download and forward data.

Have you experienced failure to download the email attachments when using WiFi?
