Status: offline 		Have win2k server with exchange 2k sp2 and have a wierd problem sending to some domains...
when sending to a certain domain with an attachment.. the recipient in the other company receives the email but with no attachement. We can send emails with attachements fine everywhere else but to 3 certain domains...
does anyone know where the fault lies (ie with my exchange or the other company's) and how to fix it. I know that ex2000 has problems sometimes talking to ex5.5 but would it cause this sort of problem? Many thanks in advance "[Smile]"

1.Does the recipient u send are included in the GAL

2. What is the Email client at the recipients side

One simple and imm. solution would be to change the message format of the the email to simpletext or html and then try.

The problem is bcoz the tnef format of e2k is not recognized by the client side application.If u can give me the above details elaborately ican sure help u.If u want u can mail me and lll give u the detailed steps and also explain you the source for this problem.Good luck

if u can give me all the details to my earlier post for this same topic. i shall help u in someway

Follow these simple tests

a. For internal users : Check whether u have made any seetign at the server to use Rich text format if yes the nchange it to user level settign

b. At the client side you change the message format to plain text. Try sending the mails with attachments. If this does not solve .(It should)

2. Both for internal and custom recipients
Send the mails by typing it and not selecting from gal bcoz when selecting from gal the Exchange 2000 message format may be used(TNEF).
If the attachments gets reached then send to various aother users typing their address and observe if it is 100% ok then there is problem in gal u rebuild the gal.(Mostly it would solve only for external users).

My understanding of the problem is that u have some message format problemss.Follow the first step and get abck to me as to whether it solevd the problem

Status: offline 		It sounds like the server you are sending to is either blocking files OR, more likely, I would guess the client is using Outlook 2002 which, by default, blocks all sorts of attachments. Search MS knowledge base for article on how to change registry on client so Outlook 2002 doesn't block attachments... Those would be the first 2 places I would look. Good luck.
