I use MS Outlook 2000 (not much choice at the office).

that's a big problem. outlook is the most massively broken piece of software released by microsoft [and *that's* saying something]. it's like complaining that your scooter won't move very fast in a field.

Mail (on Mac OS X) also shows Mr. Quinlan's messages as an odd attachment (which I never read, because I am very lazy). Oddly, the next message in this thread is from Mr. Quinlan where he notes he has heard of the problem before; it came through just fine. His next one did not.


I should note that Mail is retrieving the message from an Exchange server (which is not something that I can change).

It happens with non-exchange servers as well. I'm running qmail and UW-IMAP with Eudora as a client, and his messages are all noted as having several attachments. (Eudora, however, automatically inlines any plain text attachments, so I don't have to explicitly jump through hoops--they're jumped through for me :)
