Using any kind of rich text results in 8-bit characters that have to be
converted. In MIME this creates a type of MS-TNEF which only a handful of
clients can read. The rest, if they can unravel it at all, show a
winmail.dat attachment that nothing can open.

Disallow RTF to the Internet, a setting on the IMS.
