winmail.dat

[MuddyMettle]

Hi All,

Could anyone help with this?

If I send a Word Doc to my friend it ends up as a “winmail.dat attachments” and he can’t open it

We are both using Vista, I am using Outlook 2007 and my friend is using AOL.

I have tried tool, options, mail format, compose in this message format: HTML

But still no joy
If I send using Yahoo it works fine.
Any help?

Cheers
MM

And AOL is fcukin fussy with att, some zip files it will point blank refuse to open, if they have a yahoo account or any other on different browsers, then send the msg to these, they dont tend to be as fussy.

I know I have AOL
