My wife can't send me attachments.

Lol. It must be some setting in the server? She's never been able to send me PDFs or attached docs. I just had her send it to someone else who then sent it to me. That was fine. When she sends it all I see is a winmail.dat attach that seems to have the correct size but nothing's there. I'm assuming winmail.dat is a PC protocol.

Anyone tell me what I have to do to change this? I'm on Comcast.

Why not use Dropbox? Create a public folder and share documents that way?

 

[machenryr]

Yeah, thanks. I can do that. I just want to find the solution to why this is happening.

Are the PDFs larger than 10 MB? I ask because most ISPs block any attachment larger than 10 MB!

 

[machenryr]

No, that's not it. No attachments whatsoever. The one yesterday was 1.3 MB.

It sounds like she is using an older PC since it is sending a old winmail.dat extension. So read the article Open Winmail.dat File Mac OS X to open those attachments.

This sounds right. Thank you! I'll check it out.
