I had that problem and I figured out that it was because I had other emails there.. Dont ask me why its messed up but that fixed my problems. Delete everything else there.

you can't use web based e-mail, try a POP3 server.

What's pop3 and how do you get one and use it? need pc?
Even with POP3 email some of my backups are text-attachments, when it's the only one in the box too. I find that when I email a backup from my comp to my DC it's text, but DC to DC it's a viable vmu file.
Ukyou

I've found a good free email with both POP3/SMTP access. www.HotPOP.com
You might need a computer to sign up, but after that it works fine just on DC
