Thank You for the welcome, Harsha.
I have not seen the attachment that is being sent out, so I am including a
few "fixes" that I found on the web.
===================
PROBLEM: Strange Microsoft Exchange/Outlook Attachments of type
"application/ms-tnef"
Are you receiving messages with short, strange, unreadable attachments at
their end? Are these messages originating from someone who used Microsoft
Exchange or Microsoft Outlook for their e-mail? If so, the message is
arriving in "Microsoft RTF format", and only the sender can take steps to
correct the situation.
SOLUTION:
In order to fix the problem, the source of the request for MS RTF must be
located. The source could be in the user's address book, or in the Global
Address book. In all cases, you will be looking for a flag which is set
like this:
[X] Always Send to this recipient in Microsoft Exchange Rich Text Format (RTF)
and turn it off by unchecking it. To find this flag, the sender must
double-click on the recipient's name in the address book they use to send
messages to you. If the name is located in a Personal Address Book, the
sender can fix this. If the name comes from the Global Address Book, only
the Exchange Administrator can make this change.
====================
Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft Exchange
Go to the Tools menu and select Service. Highlight the Internet Mail option
from the list and click the Properties button. Then click the Message
Format button. Make sure that the "Use MIME when sending messages" is NOT
checked. If it is, remove the check from the box. then press the OK button
to save.
===================
Outlook Express
Tools
- Options
- "Send" tab
Make sure that both settings there are to "Plain Text" (not HTML)
- Within Settings:
Set Message format as MIME, set "Encode text using:" to None.
Set Automatically wrap text at 70, and > is used to indent original text.
====================
Outlook 98
- Tools
- Options
- "Mail Format" tab
"Message Format" - select either Microsoft Word or Plain Text
* (do not select RTF format or HTML format)
