WinMail.dat + Outlook2003 + Exchange2003 SP2
Hello Guys,
i have a client he dont let loose about this topic and i think there is no realy solution, is there?
I hope u can give me maybe a advice to workarround.
To the Network:
Outlook 2003
Exchange 2003 SP3
The Problem:
sending mails to freemailer (gmx freenet aol) or Notes
the attatchens come in winmail.dat
Solution is sending as "text" and as well set the rcpt aswell to only text in the contakt. that works.
but i have a little bigger domain and everbody of then do more or less what they like. Sending in Rich or HTML.
is there a way what i can restrict all mails to txt in the exchange?
Somehow that i will loose no content in the Mail but to make shure for my domain that i will not creat a winmail.dat
whos fault is it anyway? Outlook? Exchange? Freemailer? Or is there no RFC for Codesets?
Thx alot and plz give me some solution for that mess ;-)

Not USUALLY Exchange's fault. ALWAYS Exchange's fault. This is a very common prob;em, just google winmail.dat, you'll generally get hundreds of immediate hits that refer to MS tech docs that forushevsky quoted.

What do you mean no solution for the mess? You've been given very clear direction on how to set up Exchange so it behaves nicely with the rest of the Internet.
