Exchange 5.5 sp4
NT 4.0 sp6a

System has been running for 2 years without this problem.  

99.9% of users can receive email attachments from outside users
with no problem.  Word documents, Excel Spreadsheets, Zip Files, etc.

However, mail sent from one specific outside address arrives with
an attachment, attachment has name  "minutes.doc"  but it 
is not a word document.   It is all text, looks like a mime or
uuencoded document.   Here are the first few lines:

0M8R4KGxGuEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPgADAP7/CQAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAALgAAAAAAAAAA

If that same outside user send the same file to my America Online address
it works just fine.

Outside user claims they are using Outlook.  Header from AOL says:
X-Priority: 3 (Normal)
X-MSMail-Priority: Normal
X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook IMO, Build 9.0.2416 (9.0.2911.0)
Importance: Normal
X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2600.0000


Any ideas?
