Thanks Michael. Windows Mail was a step back from OE and Live Mail is yet to catch up it seems.
Which is a shame as it is commonly used and "looks" good. From: Michael B. Smith [mailto:mich...@smithcons.com] Sent: Tuesday, 8 November 2011 7:24 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Mail Enabled Contacts - MAPI Rich Txt Format TNEF/RTF has been a public format for a long time. OE implemented it, so did PMail, so did that client from Qualcomm that I'm blanking on at the moment. Couldn't tell you why Live Mail chose not to, unless it was simply easier to only support text and html. Regards, Michael B.

This results in some recipients not being able to see the attachment at all. In this case the Recipient is using Windows Live Mail. We have a lot of mail enabled contacts using all sorts of email clients. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841668 discusses the solution. What I'm curious about is if I should be changing the Default for the MAPI Rich Text Formatting to be "Never" (haven't looked it up yet but I'll assume this can be done). I'm a bit perplexed as to why it isn't disabled by default. Not everyone has Outlook.
