You may want to stop using Word as your editor. The scrolling to the right
on my 19" monitor is kind of annoying. Most list users prefer Plain Text!!!

The problem is with web mail. We have the same issues but it also happens
with Netscape and Mozilla.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Attachment Problem


We have pushed every Microsoft Security Updates to the computers.  We caught
up installing all the OS Security hotfixes starting last week when we
installed SUSAdmin.  All the updates that have been released in the past
month are now installed.

The attachments are not corrupted at all.  I can download them on my
workstation via Outlook/IMAP or Mozilla.  The problem is that we do not
allow any clients other then web messaging in the restaurants.  (This alone
provided a built in security from viruses for the past 3 years).  It is very
definitely an IE related issue.  It is almost like the mime registrations
have been corrupted except I can navigate to a doc file on a web server and
it handles it just fine.  When I try to right mouse click and save the
attachment locally, the resultant file is corrupted.  When I try to save a
DOC file for instance when I try to open it in Word, It asked what character
set the file is encoded with then when it tries to open it I get some header
info and then gabled data.

I updated the Webmail templates when I installed HF2.  I reinstalled the
templates7 again to see if it made the difference to no avail.

Any suggestions?
