Don’t see attachments in old emails

I've been following the threads and there is no solution. this is pathetic, everything was working great until you guys made changes that are detrimental to the point where we can't even open attachments from old emails. Don't change the interface to mess up the basics..  I have cleared out my cache and temporary files. I use google chrome on my macbook pro. I still cannot see attachments in old emails and i need them urgently.
