Importing Email and Winmail.dat files

[Lynn Quinlan]

Hi there,

I'm hoping someone can enlighten me. I'm in the process of importing
e-mails from Outlook 2003 using an MSN account into Entourage 2004. The
import using the account is fine; however, on many messages I see an
attachment called winmail.dat and Entourage doesn't seem to know what to do
with it. Can something be done to solve this problem? Do I need to
download something on to my Intel Duo mac to resolve this?

Thanks in advance.

Lynn
