Olaf, try the feedback forum.

Have an issue where an outside person is sending an email to two users within the domain.  One user recieves the email perfectly with 4 attachments, the other user recieves it as a winpmail.dat of one file.

This is odd if both users are using Pegasus Mail.  I would think both would receive the attachment as winmail.dat (I assume when you typed "winpmail.dat" you meant "winmail.dat"). 

I hope someone else has an explanation for this as I occasionally have to assist users with opening winmail.dat attachments and would love to know of something inside Pegasus that could help.

See this post.

I have been using Winmail Opener (http://www.eolsoft.com/) to open winmail.dat attachments.  I don't see them often enough to warrant automating the process though.  I still find it intriguing that the OP indicates two users receiving the same email but only one receiving the attachments as a winmail.dat file.  The assumption is that both users are using Pegasus Mail and if that's the case, why only one receives as winmail.dat.  Of course the assumption may be wrong so I'm hoping for clarification.

  The reason for the differing message types is the setup in MsExchange and needs the MsEx admin to fix the entry that is using Rtf for message composition and change it to Html. See any one of the numerous postings on Google or Microsoft for this wel-loved glitch :-(

Yea, I know all about the winmail.dat issue.  My point was a curiosity as to why the attachments would show up as a winmail.dat file for one user but not for another (again, assuming both are using Pegasus Mail).

Its the creator of the message who decides the format of the message content, not the message receiver.

I can't believe that. Did you see that?

One choice excluding winmail.dat is fentun. But this will (if correctly activated in MIME-MAP.PM and VIEWER.PM) be started as external program when opening a winmail.dat. It doesn't change anything within Pegasus. It simply enables you to save the included files to disk. Both should see a winmail.dat within Pegasus as attachement.

May be one Pegasus (if localy installed) is configured with fentun, one doesn't? Or may be on one computer there is a piece of other software capable excluding winmail.dat, on the other isn't?

bye   Olaf

P.S. In difference to installation discription by Thomas I simply copied FENTUN.EXE to the program directory of my central installation of Pegasus and added the needed lines to central MIME-MAP.PM and VIEWER.PM.
