My understanding is that the encoded resource fork is simply ignored by Windows. Certainly that's what happens for me between home and work. AppleDouble is the 'best' encoding because of just this. <snip> >> From: Allan Aunkst <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> Reply-To: "Entourage:mac Talk" <[email protected]> >> Date: Tue, 01 Mar 2005 20:43:35 -0500 >> To: Entourage mail Help <[email protected]> >> Subject: Recipients not able to open(encoding?) >> >> I am using entourage and allot of people cant seem to open allot of attached >> stuff ,I currently use the setting in my preferences under news and >> mail/compose >> Encode any computer /apple double >> >> I was wondering if I change this setting would my recipients then be able to >> open most attachments . >> Some cant open pictures and today I copied a few sentences off of another >> email and dragged them to my desktop then dragged them onto a new email and >> they were not able to open it. I was just wondering if its because im >> encoding in apple double? So you added some text to the message, via drag and drop, or did you create an attachment from a clipping file? If the latter then I wouldn't be surprised at Windows not knowing how to cope with it. If the former then there is a different issue because the encoding referred to is for attachments, not the message itself. -- Dave -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
