Blocked Attachments

[DRios]

One of my users has designed a helpdesk form that will be shared with staff
state-wide. In oder to make sending the form as seamless as possible to the
end user she wants to use an email data connection. The problem is that
Infopath generates the attachment as an .xml file which is then blocked at
our Exchange Servers. I'm looking for work-arounds to this problem and would
appreciate any input you can share. Thanks.--

It is probably NOT exchange that is blocking the .xml extension, but the
outlook client. For instructions on how to change an outlook client to
allow or block specific extensions, see:

Thanks Greg. We are running in an Exchange Environment and I've already
verified with the Exchange Administrator that all .xml attachments,
regardless of source and\or recipient, are blocked.
