Default Winmail.dat Attachments - Keep coming back...

Thanks for the reply.

Talking about "Sharepoint" contacts, is it possible to share them with my
smart phone? They are not in my standard contacts folder.

And - hopefully the windows Vista Windows Mobile Device Center and my WM5
phone won't change these settings back either!

Thanks

go to tools, options, mail format and set the internet mail format to
html. That will cause internet messages to use html unless the contact is
set for always use RTF. The only master switch is in Exchange server -
the admin could force no RTF to the internet.

I know sharepoint contacts that are connected to outlook will always use
RTF - changing it on outlook only works until the next sync. Other
applications which share contacts may do the same.

I keep changing each of my email addresses to "let Outlook Decide" in
order to get rid of the "winmail.dat" attachments - but 2 months later -
they all have been switched back again. I have hundreds of contacts.
Its always the same ones that keep switching back to outlook rich text -
and then these people complain to me that they can't read my mail.

I have selected "Imap" as the preferred Mail format in Outlook options...

How can I rid my machine of this winmail.dat demon once and for all?

I wish there was a master switch - never send winmail.dat.....

Honestly, I am frustrated. Ready to dunk my machine in holy water.

Please help.
