Check if the following would make any difference.
check the IMAP protocol properties > message format tab > untick the rtf
format option.

Yes, that article addresses email clients that can't recognize winmail.dat files. The solution according to that article is to disable RTF and/or .HTML mail formatting from within Outlook. Either way, even disabling .rtf and .html formatting doesn't solve my problem. Any attachments I send (.xls .doc, etc) don't go through. My email shows up with a winmail.dat file in it but not the attachment I included.
Thanks for your reply!

I am sure you have done your research, but I found an MS Article 278061 so if you could look at it, and I really wish that it has the answer to your question
Let me know how it went please

Yeah, all service packs for both Windows 2000 & 2003 and Exchange 2000 & 2003 have been applied.
Thanks,

I believe SP1 could take care of the problem. Try it and let us know how it went

Hi all,
About a week ago we added an Exchange 2003 server to our organization with plans to move our current users from our Exchange 2000 server. All the prerequisites for adding this second server (including the tests recommended before install) were met and the install ation went well. As is the case with most new implementations, I was the guinnea pig and moved my mailbox over to the new server (2003) and I continued to receive emails as normal.
I was informed recently that when I send an email with an attachment or (god forbid) a stationery background to a user for which their mailbox still resides on the Exchange 2000 server, the email appears with a winmail.dat file in the Attachments section and the body of the message is missing. When a user on the E2K server sends me emails with attachments or backgrounds, I receive them fine.
Any ideas or solutions?
Thanks!
Craig
