The attachments are in a winmail.dat file. People who read mail with
anything besides Outlook cannot open them. Some clients show an
attachment that cannot be opened; others show no attachment.
Believe it or not turning on and off RTF is the way to turn on and off
this behavior. It should always be *off* for Internet mail.
