Yes, just like with "real" mail, it is possible to attach documents
to your email. Unfortunately, many email systems scramble attachments
that are not simple text files. If the folks on the receiving end
of your attachment-laden email are getting nothing but baby talk,
then it's possible your email program just doesn't speak the same
language as theirs. The key is to make sure that you're both using
the same encoding protocol, which is the way your email program
condenses files into a sendable size. There are lots of encoding
protocols to choose from, but most of the time people use MIME,
BINHex, or UUencode. If matching up your encoding protocols fails
to do the trick, another thing to try is renaming the attached document
using a PC-friendly eight-dot-three name such as "8letters.doc."
And if that fails, you might want to go old-school: Put the file
on a disk and FedEx the cursed thing. |
