Older versions can only talk pop/imap to non-outlook clients and while that isn't too bad for text, attachments show up as unusable ms-tnef parts instead of mime. It does work OK to use evolution/imap against the same exchange mailbox you access with outlook - even at the same time - so you can resort to outlook when needed to open an attachment. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx
