OE cannot download a message but not the attachment. It doesn't know there
is an attachment or where in the message the attachment starts. How big is
the message?

If the mail was sent from Outlook using Outlook's RTF format then Outlook
Express will never find the attachment. Outlook Express does not understand
Outlook's RTF format. Ask the Outlook user to please use Plain Text,
especially when sending attachments.

While viewing the message press Ctrl-F3. If you find a Content line
referencing "ms.tnef" then the message was sent from Outlook.

Default Does not recieve attachments from 1 sender, it work for the ot

Within the last 3-4 weeks (I noticed but looking back it appears to have
occured arround the 1st of December) the Outlook 2000 on my system started to
append all attachments as Winmail.dat. Previously attachments were sent
normally. Outlook is installed as Internet Mail Only on a non-corporate pc
(no exchange server involved - OS is XP Pro SP-2). Outlook is SP3 9.0.0.6627
& all updates applied. Send mail format is defined as plain text. Have even
explecilty specified for recipient in Contact entry "send plain text only".
Emails with attachments are sent plain text with the "attachment" appended
within the note as Winmail.dat when received by OE mail client. I can't find
any more places to check or change nor any other documentation on MS site
other than Article ID: 138053 that would apply. Another person using Outlook
XP is experiencing the same issues. Another friend says she's seeing the same
issue in emails sent to her(she's a OE users) by a person using Outlook on
library computer from upstate NY - the attachments come as appended
Winmail.dat. Something changed and I don't know what. Only software
installations have been IE 7 Beta then the full version when it was released
+ system updates. But since this appears more wide spread than my PC I'm
wondering if a patch hasn't changed something unknowlingly. Any information
you could share or suggestions other than what I've done would be appreciated.

Thank you

If Outlook is set to send in plain text then the only other reason I know of
would be if it is passing through an Exchange server that is changing it to
RTF. Again, look at the source code in the received message for "ms-tnef"
without the quotes.

Note that if sending via an Exchange server, the Exchange server
administrator may be overriding the mail client settings. In this case,
the administrator will need to make changes on the server. In some
cases, the Exchange server actually removes the attachments to some
recipients.
