I know that, that was what I suggested since the original poster mentioned Outlook. But trust me IMAIL 2006.1 HAS attachment issues. Some can be solved having the client change to plain text others, like forwarded attachments from Yahoo and Hotmail/MSN just can't be read. Also if someone composes an HTML message in the Web Client to someone using a Palm Treo, only the subject can be read. I am EAGERLY awaiting the fixes to these issues.

A simple tweak to the client settings fixes this... http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-20000125-DM02.htm Daniel Donnelly -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Marc Catuogno Sent: Monday, May 07, 2007 4:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] attachment problem Yes. IMAIL will mangle attachments in 2006.1 - I have them showing up as .dat files most often. If you have the people sending from Outlook change to plain text, it MAY get the attachment through.... If they could save the attachment first and attach it to a new email instead of forwarding (and send in plain text) that could help as well. They should also jump through a hoop or two... I'm REALLY hoping they fix this in 2006.2 when they patch it!

So far I can't tell if it's related to IMail or not. The problem occurs when people forward an email message that has an attachment. The person receiving the forwarded email cannot open the attachment. It seems to especially happen when the person doing the forwarding is using the Outlook client. Has anyone heard of this before. We're running IMail 2006.1 Thanks for any help. -- Susan Doucette Information Technology Santa Cruz City Schools 405 Old San Jose Rd.
