I am testing my Exchange 4.0 Internet Connector (ver. 4.0.994.63) to be
sure that most people can recieve what we are sending to them.

Per default I have configured it to send using RTF format and MIME.

But when the reciver is Microsoft Internet Mail (the one that comes with IE
3.02 DK), the MIME attatchhment is lost.

Does anyone have an idea what is going wrong?

Here are the details:
Only the text that follows this header is displayed at the reciver:

------ =_NextPart_000_01BC4974.11B638C0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

The text contains a reference to the lost file:

[[ TILMEL~1.DOC : 1569 in WINMAIL.DAT ]]

But the attatchment following this header is lost:

------ =_NextPart_000_01BC4974.11B638C0
Content-Type: application/ms-tnef
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

If I send a mail from MS Internet Mail to itself using MIME it works ok.
But the header of the attachment is different here:

------=_NextPart_000_01BC4977.498637C0
Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="Tilmeldte numre til 1001.doc"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Description: Tilmeldte numre til 1001 (Microsoft Word-dokument)
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Tilmeldte numre til 1001.doc"
