File Attachments

[Hans Liebenberg <ha...@cambrient.com>]

Hi,

I have been using James in custom applications but have now decided to 
install it our company's email server.
All is working perfectly except that *occasionally* some users file 
attachments  going out and coming in are been attached with names like
att0071.dat, or winmail.dat and not the actual attachment name

E.g A word doc was sent externally, the client received the attachment 
as att0071.dat, and by simply renaming it to ".doc" worked fine.

Thanks
Hans

James does not alter the attachment name or any other content of the 
mails unless you configured it to do that.

This is probably an issue with the Mail client used.
