Usually WinMail.DAT means you're sending your mail in Rich Text Format. Use
Plain Text or HTML format instead

I am having a similar problem. Any Word, Excel or datbase attachment is
renamed or rewritten to tech.gif and is unusable by the person I sent it to.
Even without an attachment, there shows to be a tech.gif attached to the
receiving party. I now must use different method to email these type docs.
Help!
