50645	2002-05-25 02:12:00	When I send attachments (pdf and zip so fat) the other peron gets them as winmail.dat and cant open them. How can i make Microsoft Outlook send them without changing it to winmail.dat??	Guest (0)
50646	2002-05-25 04:15:00	Hmm...I am keen to see what the general response is to this question. I used to have that problem with Outlook 97 (in fact, it got to the stage where all e-mails included an attachment of something.dat proportions). In the end I had to use Outlook Express and when I upgraded to Outlook 2000 and Outlook XP the problem seemed to have disappeared. I'm not sure what I did to fix it...perhaps a reinstall might work even. Still...I'll wait to see what someone who knows has to say :)	Guest (0)
