Windows Mail can't receive attachment from Outlook 2003

[Keen]

My friend using Outlook 2003 send a email that content attachment to me (
using Windows Mail) and the others friend that (using Outlook 2007).

I can received the email but the attachment is missing, but the others
friend he can received this email and the attachment together.

Any solutions for this issue?
Please help.

Ask your friend (and any other Outlook users) to only send messages to you
in Plain Text format, especially if there's an attachment.

The basic problem is that Outlook, by default, uses a proprietary
form of encoding for attachments, which is not readable by
non-Outlook mail clients.
Ask the sender to resend the attachment using either plain text (preferred) or
standard HTML format.
