I met a problems that i use SQLmail (combined with Outlook2002) to send a mail with a excel file attached (or any other format file), I receive good email but the attachment change winmail.dat file.

But i use outlook app. to send email with the excel file-> it work well (received with true format file attached), I studied the way to turn off application-tnef (from MSDN guide) : rich text format -> plain or html ...but SQL mail still send with winmail.dat attached

Please show me how to config or the way to use SQLmail with true attached file format sent/received !

Thanks a lot,"
