RE: attachments physically being changed en-route?

Hello Rick, 

We had an issue with a customer recently where their mail server was using 
7-bit mime encoding while most mime encoding is 8-bit. 

This was changing some characters in PDF attachments, thus rendering them 
useless to read. 

If they are using MS Exchange I believe there is a custom setting to 
change on the MS Exchange Server. 

Hope this helps. 

Regards,
