sent attachments don't open

[garrett]

lately, any attachment or number of attachments i'm
sending, no matter how big or small, from exel files to
jpegs to autocad files, is received as a 'winmail.dat'
file which can't be opened. some of these recipients are
people who i've previously successfully sent the same
types of attachments. i've checked and confirmed that i'm
sending everything in rich text format. i'm using outlook
2000 in windows 2000 professional. what's going on and
how can it be fixed?

Don't use rich text format. Use plain text or HTML.
