At least never had a problem with that. Could you perhaps investgate furthe= r=20 where exactely the problem is by looking on the message source or forward m= e=20 an example mail that does not work?

Sometimes it is useful to have a local= =20 network with all kind of Windows from 3.1 up to ME running :-) The problem is by no means related to forwarding with KMail. Microsoft=20 Outlook Express (I tested 4.72 and 5) is not even able to display the=20 attachment of the original mail if the reciever would have recieved it=20 directely. Although the mails is also created by some Microsoft Software. However if I change manually the Content-Type from "application/ms-tnef" to= =20 for example "application/word" it is displayed. To me it looks like that is= =20 intended to hide this information by Outlook. You can be sure that KMail has no such hidden features. I guess you should better direct your problem report to the Outlook authors. Regards Michael H=E4ckel |
