Re: Weird mail issue sending PDF attachments (or maybe also other files)
Have you tried forcing the mail to be plain text by setting this option on the recipient in Exchange server? There's a checkbox labeled always send to receipient in RTF format or something similar. (I'm speaking from Exchange 2003 experience; assume this is still relevant to newer versions) I saw you mnetioned plain text, but wasn't sure if that was done client-side or server-side.

RE: Weird mail issue sending PDF attachments (or maybe also other files)
Does the message size of the email in the recipient's inbox suggest is the attachment is there but masked/hidden by the mail client (I am assuming Outlook), or has it actually been stripped out? What happens if you view the mailbox via webmail/owa? One of our suppliers used to email in PDF quotes and the PDFs were not quite correct (not sure on the finer details), but it caused the content checking email software (MailMarshall, iirc) to silently drop the whole message :( From: HELP_PC [mailto:g...@enter.it] Sent: 12 May 2011 07:17 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Weird mail issue sending PDF attachments (or maybe also other files) SBS2k3 env.
