Hi there,,

Is Arcrobat PDF application installed on Eric's PC ?
Was this attachment sent from out side the company or from an internal user ?
What is lotus notes client version on both your PC and Eric's ?
What happens if you forward the email with the PDF attachment to him does he receive it as PDF or winmail.dat?

Best Wishes

. 4. What happens if you forward the email with the PDF attachment to him does he receive it as PDF or winmail.dat? he received in pdf
So far so good,,,, as a work around you can forward it to him .
- I think your consultant is the one having the problem if he uses MS exchange and this is know problem ,,, please forward this URL to your consultant and ask him for an action

Good Luck
But the problem is all my internal user and me no problem receive from the same sender ?
Ok ,, Just in order to Isolate the problem could you please send this URL to the consultant first

Then we can talk about it
They said not their site issue ,because the use the same PC to send to different people in our company just is that particular person have issue only .
