[rt-users] winmail.dat attachments only on ticket Replies

[Steve O'Brien]

Thanks Juan,
I have too tried tnef and ytnef work-arounds without success.

I don't have control over all the exchange environments using RT so I have to find a solution for the winmail.dat decoding.

Thanks!

I just went through a similar issue.  Though for me, if a user submitted a new ticket and were using Rich Text formatting, it would create the winmail.dat file.  The only way I was able to fix it was to disable TNEF formatting in Exchange.  If you look up TNEF and RT you will probably find some workarounds for your RT server, but I couldn't get any of them to work, so resorted to disabling it completely on Exchange.

Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to get RT-mailgate to parse winamil.dat files that are attached to ticket replies.

1.)    If a user opens a ticket with an attachment - no problem

2.)    If a user creates a new email using the subject line included in the original ticket with an attachment - no problem

3.)    If a user click on reply to the ticket and adds an attachment then I get winmail.dat attachment - problem
TIA,
Steve
