Hey guys, great site! I've been reading this forum all night.
SITUATION: To get my email from Outlook 2003 on the Windows 7 side (I use Boot Camp), I created an IMAP account with Outlook and copied everything in my inbox, including subfolders to the IMAP server. Then, I rebooted into MacOSX, set up the IMAP account in iMail and it proceeded to download everything from the mail server.
PROBLEM: In iMail though, all of my attachments are now showing up as Winmail.dat files instead of the original attachment.
Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it? For my work, 90% of my business is email (commercial real estate) and I'm done wasting my life "working" on PCs and dealing with all of that BS so I'm on my last trek back to the light side but this bump could prove disastrous for me.
I just got a new MBP 17" from Best Buy and I've been PC my whole life. I used to be in advertising as an Avid Editor and I used Adobe After Effects for motion graphics, etc so I got to taste the Mac for 5 years or so but I'm having to relearn it again. New career forced me back into PC limbo the last 7 years unfortunately so this site has been a Godsend in helping me get back to the light side.
Thanks for any help guys!
