Not sending attachments not even to entourage

[GIS - Hussein Ezzeddine]

Dear All,

I have this serious problem troubling me for some time now.

When I compose in entourage and send for example to an outlook2003, hotmail
and the same Entourage, only the hotmail manage to receive the messae well
while entourge and outllok have the missing mime type error and cant even
see attachments. I have entourage 11,3,3(061214) and OSX 10,4,8, and I use
HTML email with a signature that has a picture, and I ytied with all
different encodings that come packed with entourage but no luck

Please please save this soul! Cheers!

See the FAQs on Compression:

If you still have problems, report back with a much detail as possible.

Thank you for your reply.

I have tried all what is recommended in the link you provided, but still
same problem.

I have done extensive tests and the results I came with are
- If I send to my self I get the Missing Mime type error and cant see the
attachments and the signature (which contains an image is shown as strange
characters)
- Some outlook 2003 have the same problem
- All hotmails seem to receive emails ok
- Compression and characterset and encoding are not altering the results,
always the same problem

I have added a header text/html as I saw in one of the comments on the net
but no result

The error I get in the beginning of the email:
This message is in MIME format. Since your mail reader does not understand
this format, some or all of this message may not be legible.

Remove all header info you added and see what happens.

Also create a new Identity in Entourage and create an html mail with all of
the default settings. What happens?
