Bob,

I tried opening the winmail.dat file with Word, Adobe PDF Reader, EditPlus, Notepad and one more program, but none worked; therefore, I tried the last resort:

     1.  Saved winmail.dat to the desktop

     2. Went to http://www.winmaildat.com/

     3. Clicked on Choose File to choose what file I wanted to convert.  I chose winmail.dat

     4. Clicked on Send file to send winmail.dat to the converter

     5. Clicked on the extracted file (PDF), which is right below the winmail.dat uploaded file

     6. Selected Keep and where  to put it when the browser offered

     7. Go to save location and open with your favorite PDF reader

The file appears to be legit. I'm gonna attach it to this email, though, so everyone doesn't have to do the above.

The winmail.dat file is a proprietary file produced by Microsoft Outlook.  Outlook is the only program that can open it.  If you use any other mail program, you're kinda outta luck.  There are some programs that will interpret it.  The Outlook user that sent this file should change the settings in Outlook to attach native files rather than the winmail.dat file.

I switched to Mac a number of years ago and haven't used Outlook in just as long.  I don't remember where to find that setting.  I'm sure that there must be some Outlook users out there that can help.  But I do know that there is a setting where you can switch that "feature."    Also, if you are connected to a Windows server using Exchange, the setting may be at the Exchange level.  



Any windows experts out there?

Roger;  

   

According to Microsoft, this problem arises (automatic conversion to .dat files) when you try to send e-mails in “rich text format”. Their solution is to use either “plain text format” or “HTML format”. Different versions of Windows and Outlook make these selections differently, but on my combination there is a selection box on the toolbar where the “send” button is located which allows me to make that distinction. Your e-mails have always looked different than everyone else’s on my computer and this may be why. In typing this response my computer automatically selected “rich text” because that is the format of your original. That would seem to lend credence to Microsoft’s explanation. I’ve changed this reply manually to “HTML” because that’s what I normally use for e-mail.

The better choice for most email is plain text. Every email program 

handles it cleanly, the file size is kept to a minimum. Many listservs 

will automatically strip HTML from a message, leaving you shooting blanks.

 I will start using only HTML!  Not sure why I got into the habit of using Rich Text but if changing to HTML will solve the problem, Iâ€™m all for it.  â˜º  â˜º

In Outlook 2010 there appear to be two places that might affect this. In Outlook go to File/ Options

You’ll see this:

Scroll down a bit further and you’ll see this, look under “Message Format”:
