Outlook 2007 sends pdf attachments as winmail.dat

I set the formating as plain text but still no success. All
attachments I sent out either pdf, .zip or .rar end up as winmail.dat.

Any idea?

I am trying to use Outlook 2007.
 
have you checked the following?

1) Open contact record. Double click on email address. Verify that it is
*not* set to always send in Outlook Rich Text.

2) Tools > Options > Mail Format tab > Internet Format. The default is to
convert to HTML.
 
No luck, this does not resolve the issue.

I wonder if Microsoft is trying to prevent us from sending pdf
attachments?
 
Any third party applications installed? (ActiveSync, Palm sync software,
..etc)
