Hi All,

I have an issue with a web application in that when it send out an email
internally the attachments are missing. If they go externally everything is
fine.

We have recently (last 2 weeks) upgraded from exchange 5.5 to exchange 2003
and everything was working beforehand.

I get no error messages or warning saying attachments are missing/blocked
and I have checked all the antivirus/spam blockers that we use.

When looking in the headers it shows that the attachment is there but
nothing is there. I have attached a copy of the headers.

Can anybody suggest what is going wrong or missing

If anyone is interested we managed to work out the issue.

The mails were being sent from the applications in a mime/alternative
format. Once this was changed to mime/mixed everything started to work ok
