This article was previously published under Q154798 SYMPTOMS
An external user sends a mail message with an attachment over the Internet
and a Microsoft Exchange Server's Internet Mail Connector (IMC) receives
the message. The IMC then hands off the message to the MS Mail Connector
(MSMI) which forwards the message to an MS Mail for PC Networks Postoffice.
The PC Mail 3.x Windows client picks up the message and displays it in the
user's Inbox with a paper-clip indicating an attachment. When the user
opens the message, they don't see the attachment. If they forward the
message, the attachment appears and can be viewed.
WORKAROUND
The attachment appears if it is sent to a user on a Microsoft Exchange
Server. It also appears in PC Mail DOS clients and Microsoft Exchange
clients running against the PC Mail 3.x Postoffice.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
version 4.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange
Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the
