winmail.dat while using HTML

[richard]

i've read a lot about this subject, but havent found my problem.
everyone says you should send mail in plain text or html to stop sending
winmail.dat

still, i use html and people still recieve winmail.dat. i never use rich
text. why do these people recieve winmail.dat? i just want to be able to
send my mail in html!!

thanks for the help

Hi Richard,

here is a website with a description:

WHY do these people recieve winmail.dat?

Maybe it helps.

ok,

very nice of you to send me the link.
i understand that also HTML is doomed and i can't send HTML without the
winmail.dat file.

*$&%^@&!*# microsoft. like they are the only ones with email programs.

i don't understand why i cant send HTML to a mac user, while his program
uses HTML!

Hi richard,

i don't understand why i cant send HTML to a mac user...

Because Outlook is not as other E-Mail programs.

A technical answer can give you only the developers of Outlook ( I think).

again thanks for the help. this community works great. very fast answers.
keep up the good work
I will stop trying now, i'll just send plain text and have no worries.
