The email doubles in size? Sounds unlikely. Or is the problem the user now has 
one copy of the message in their inbox and a different message, also 5MB in 
their sent items folder (more likely). If it is the latter, that would seem to 
be expected behavior. I have never seen a message in one's inbox change in any 
fashion other than the attributes which mark a message as having been forwarded 
when one forwards a message. If the message truly is doubling in size, it is 
likely some other piece of software which is causing that to happen.

Conversation: email attachments double in size
Subject: email attachments double in size

Hello, in our Exchange 2003/Outlook 2003 environment one of our users is
having the following problem. When he forwards an email with an
attachment within the company, the attachment doubles in size (for the
sender.)

For example, user 'A' has and email in their inbox with a 5mb
attachment. He then forwards that email user 'B'. The email in User
'A's' inbox becomes 10mb.

Under normal circumstances the user would not care except that his
mailbox fills twice as fast.

Thanks in advance.
