Cindy, Try this. When typing the first letter of the recipient move the cursor down to the suggested email and press DELETE. It has to do with clearing some kind of cache.
Then enter the address manually. After this your attachments should be normal doc.-files. The next time you can use the suggestions again when typing an email address. As you know I had the same problem with all kinds of attachments. I asked the persons from whom I was getting winmail.dat files to do this and from then the problem is solved. It is only difficult if you have to ask a lot of people. I only had to asked three people.
