ATT00004.bin Attachments

We have users sending/forwarding e-mails to internal employees and an "att00004.bin" file attaches to the e-mail being sent.  The problem is we are not allowing .bin files to pass through our mail server.

Has anyone seen this issue?  Any help would be appreciated.

(Assuming you guys are using Exchange)

This is most likely reminiscent of the old winmail.dat attachments of earlier Exchange. Meaning, a rich text issue. You can force HTML to all users by doing the following.

Organization Configuration > Hub Transport > Remote Domains > right click the object Default > click on Properties > select 'Never use' under Exchange rich-text format

Yes, we are using Exchange 2007.

I have it configured as you have explained but to no avail.  I also had the user changed the mail format in Outlook from HTML to Rich Text and vice versa but no still no luck.
