jAttachments & pictures are changed to .dat file & can't be opened

[RoseC]

When attachments & pictures are sent via email, they cannot be opened by
receiver. The items are changed to .dat files. Need to be able to send in
HMTL.

If your recipient is getting a .dat file, that means that you're sending in
Rich Text format, not HTML format. Send in HTML format and the problem will
be solved.
