Thanks for this. Having read Steves article I'm still puzzled about how you would go about providing a service that delivers a dime attachment (his article focus is on clients sending attachments to services). Do I have to do something different than returning a DataHandler with the attachment in it to work with DIME? Do I need to provide a different version of the service for dime, or is Axis clever enough to use DataHandler to send DIME things to DIME clients.

And to clarify my last statement, you use WSE with .NET to enable DIME attachments. (Standard .NET doesn't support attachments.)
