Common questions

Why did I receive winmail.dat?

It is commonly produced when Outlook sends rich-text formatting to a recipient whose email client does not understand TNEF.

Is winmail.dat itself a virus?

It is a container format. Treat recovered files with the same caution as any email attachment.
