[Hidden-tech] windows.dat (was Re: Sending attachments from Mac to PC/and the other way 'round)

[Tom Kopec]

the windows.dat is most likely coming from an Outlook user that has you 
set as able to receive rich-text messages.

see http://www.joshjacob.com/mac-development/tnef.php

I use a similar sort of thing to deal with these stupid attachments on 
my windows system (it really isn't a windows/mac issue)
