XP/Outlook 2000/winmail.dat

[dhamar]

I have problem with friends sending me email with Outlook 2000 using XP operating systems. The attachments come in as winmail.dat files. I've tried converting them, but the results are not readable. Anyone have a solution for this problem. Perhaps a better conversion software?

i did a little searching and found that this may help you. http://www.biblet.com/ .... download the utility halfway down the page. reply and say if it fixes the problem.

Thanks yashar for your suggestion. It worked great! However, www.biblet.com did not function. I did a search and came up with http://www.biblet.freeserve.co.uk/ which worked fine. The read me file is a definite "must read". The drag and drop feature works great and automatically creates a readable file in whatever directory the winmail.dat file was located.

Thanks again yashar!:
