OK, let me a bit more precise. I attached a PDF file (intro.pdf) in Cone 
0.65 and emailed it to an Outlook user. He got the attachment but now the 
file was called ATT101795.dat. He saved the file and sent me an email with 
this new file. I examined it and it is the same PDF file.

As far as I understand Outlook, it only uses the three letters after the . 
(period) in order to select the proper program. When the managers/editors I 
work with get a .dat file and Outlook/Windows cannot open it directly, 
they'll discard it and just say "I cannot open it - send it again".

But where in the transfer is the file change modified? It is Cone or 
Outlook? Can I (as Cone user) do anything to prevent it?

Thanks,
  kneth
