Unlike some mailers which attaches those pesky tnef attachments aka
winmail.dat. If Microsoft feels that it is really necessary to have them
in emails, they should have submitted a RFC.

The purpose of a MUA is to communicate and in order to do that, they
must talk the same language. This language is defined in the RFCs.
