I'm writing a script to view/download an email-attachment. If the file
happens to be an MS Word document and the browser IE (only tried with 6.0),
then the download fails.
If I choose to download (Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="whatever.doc") then only a part of the file (2/3) is saved to
disk. Of course viewing the file doesn't work either. It doesn't seem to
matter what I set the Content-Type to since IE seems to ignore that anyway,
however I've tried application/msword, application/octet-stream and some
others. I've tried all the things said in the comments to the
header-function in the online-docs at php.net.
I know my Content-Length header is correct and the whole procedure works
great with Netscape 7.0 and if the attachment is a zip-file or a jpeg-image
it also works in both IE and Netscape.

Let's just say I'm stumped and I have googled for a solution for a long time
and would be very happy if someone had one...

Thanks in advance
/Andreas
