I tried, using Outlook 2002 SP3, to move from POP3 to IMAP. Apparently, I
stumbled upon the dreaded winmail.dat problem: each file, which I move from
Outlook on the IMAP server, gets a winmail.dat attachment attached.
In accordance with
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;280857#appliesto
this problem should arise only with Outlook 2002. I'm certain, however, that
I read somewhere else that this problem occured with any Outlook version.
1. Is that indeed the case?
2. Can this be avoided somehow?
