With Outlook 2003, whenever I forward an e-mail w/ attachment to someone who
isn't using Outlook as their e-mail client, the attachment changes to a
winmail.dat file and can not be viewed/opened by the person who received the
e-mail.
I've searched high and low on Google and Google Groups and, although this
seems to be an extremely popular problem with lots of info available about
it, everything I've read says that this problem is caused by sending the
e-mail in Rich Text Format. I've set my mail client to send in plain text as
well as HTML and forwarded e-mail attachments still always change to
winmail.dat if the person receiving it isn't using Outlook; changing from
RTF to plain text or HTML hasn't fixed the problem.
If anyone has come across this problem already (i.e. changing to plain text
or HTML doesn't fix the problem) and can help me out, that would be
fantastic.
