| Hello,
|
| I have recently migrated from Groupwise 5.2 to IMAP using horde as a
| mail client. My config is
|
| Horde - Latest Stable
| IMP - Latest Stable
| Etc....
|
| I have notice that the stable version of Horde doesn't handle ms-tnef
| (winmail.dat). I did however find on the horde list that ms-tnef has
| been included in the CSV version. So off I went and installed the CSV
| snapshot from 13/04/03. Horde will now recognise ms-tnef MIME types, but
| will not display inline. If I click on the winmail.dat attachment,
| another windows pops up and describes the file attachment (name)
| (excellent). When I click on the file name it then prompts me to
| download the winmail.dat file.

the TNEF stuff will most likely not work with Horde/IMP stable.  Too much
has changed in the MIME/Horde framework in HEAD for the viewer to work with
old versions.  Moral of the story - to use the TNEF functionality, you will
have to use HEAD.
