Default Attachement Problems

If this is intra-office, why are you emailing the file? Why not drop it into
a shared network folder on a "common" drive? Access files can be really
large, why bog down your mailserver and increase both your mailbox size and
the recipient's with it?

The easiest way for this to get fixed it to rename the mdb to a different
extension. OL2K3 blocks mdb attachments automatically and there is no way to
unblock them.

Try calling it somthing like %filename%.md_
When the recipient receives the file, they can download it and then rename
it to %filename%.mdb on their end.

They're using Outlook '03 to receive the mail. They get a message
like "Outlook blocked access to the following potentially unsafe
attachments". I'm trying to send these attachments intra office; I
know they're safe. I'm unsure if I have access to the mail server.
I didn't know if there was a work-around, other than the one I
mentioned above.
