Garbled email
We are using Exchange 2007 SP2 and occasionally the email we sent will get garbled on the recipient's side. The attachment in the email appears as random text in the email content. Currently we know the receiving side is an Exchange 2003 server. Others like gmail, yahoo recipeients don't seem have this problem. I tried some test and found out that the problem only occurs when we are sending out the email using Outlook (MAPI). If we send the emails using SMTP/POP of Exchange, no problem at all. I am thinking about the problem is occurred in the phase of content conversion but can't find any solutions yet. Anyone have similar experience?

You are right, This is problem due to content conversion in Exchange 2007. To resolve this problem you have to create one remote domain Exchange 2003 remote in your ORG.

Hi, Could you give me more hints? I created a new "remote domain", then what? I tried different options, but none works.

Hi anyone has any idea. I'm pretty sure the problem is occurred in the content conversion part of Exchange 2007.
