winmail.dat (TNEF) attachments and non-Windows operating systems
By jeltsch on Wed, 04/04/2007 - 21:42My sister has sent me again an attachment which was encoded in the winmail.dat attachment. Sucks big time. Not only Linux users get pissed but also Macintosh users. Of course you can open it as long as you know how. On Mac OS X you need TNEF's Enough and on Linux you need tnef. Suse Linux 9.2 has an rpm that works well with KMail. Just click the winmail.dat and select "Open with tnef".
