while connected via VPN I get the following results opening archived attachments in Entourage: If I double-click on an email and try to open a PDF I get the error “Couldn’t open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize.” I downloaded Adobe Reader  and opened the attachment from the desktop; I now get this error, “Adobe Reader cannot open “attachment” because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ( for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn’t correctly decoded)”.

When I try to open Word documents I get the same error whether I open it after double-clicking on the email or saving it to the desktop. “This attachment is now a shortcut and requires that you open the message first before opening the attachment” But some word documents will open normally, even without me having to double-click on the email. And I confirmed they were all archived. The same attachments open up normally on my PC as long as I double click on the email.
