Hi.
I'm running Mutt 1.5.20 (2009-06-14) under Ubuntu and was wondering why
mutt couldn't cope with
some mail I got, containing an attachment, named winmail.dat (MS Outlook).
Mutt wasn't able to unpack the two JPG files that were packed into that
winmail.dat container.
I asked the friend to send the same email to another account where I hat
thunderbird (5.0) and I was able to
see the attachments (JPGs) without seeing something of winmail.dat at all.
Also forwarding the mail from mutt to the other account didn't help. I
then saw a winmail.dat
as an attachment and TB didn't know what to do with it.
-> I 1<no description> [text/plain, quoted,
iso-8859-1, 0,2K]
A 2 winmail.dat [applica/ms-tnef,
base64, 5,5M]
Thanks, hope you don't mind me sending this back to the list.
I got this "tnef"-package. What would now be the steps to make mutt
to recognize an attachment
named winmail.dat and use"tnef" to unpack it and show me the
attachments when I "v" the email.
At present it looks like this:
-> I 1<no description> [text/plain, quoted,
iso-8859-1, 0,2K]
A 2 winmail.dat [applica/ms-tnef,
base64, 5,5M]
I'd rather have it look like showing the IM000xx.JPG files or whatever
winmail.dat is hiding to me.
Try the steps listed for mutt and mailcap setup in the manual:

Thanks. It works now. It's still this winmail.dat being displayed but
when I type "v", I'm
prompted for extracting the contents.
