Windows Server - Another interesting thing - since the MS updates - Winmail.dat again

Asked By Leythos on 15-Jun-10 10:05 PM
Getting reports from people that have automatic updates enabled on their
workstations, that people are reporting they are being sent WINMAIL.DAT,
this only started after Tuesday this week. None of them reporting this
issue on Monday or before - and they were sending the same file types...

Seems to be happening with Outlook 2003 and 2007, fully patched...

Just had another dozen emails, to my customers, reported that they
contained WINMAIL.DAT files instead of the attachments. They have no
problem getting the same attachments from other people/vendors, but, it
seems to be spreading - I have seen this from customers in CA, OH, MI, TX,
TN, FL, etc...

There are no reports that my customers are sending WinMail.DAT files to
anyone, but, their computers are set to automatic updates for Office, if
that makes any difference.
