Thanks for the pointer to Fentun - works a treat.

MS Exchange uses own encoding type named MS-TNEF. If is possible to
change it to Base64, then will be problem solved.

If not, You can use program named FENTUN, which is able to decode them.
You can try to download it from this location:

Hi Batpersons,


I've recently started to get a high proportion of messages with an
attachment always named message.att,

IIRC, this is an Outlook-generated thing. Can someone please remind me
how it's caused so that I can suggest my Outlook correspondents cahnge
their setup (or, of course, their mail clients).

Thanks in advance
