Outlook 2003 Attachments missing when received by Outlook Express

I recently installed Office 2003 and use Outlook 2003 as
my mail client. When I send an email with an attachment,
recipients using Outlook Express do not get the
attachment at all. It doesn't seem to matter what type
of attachment. This is not an issue of OE blocking the
attachment because it is unsafe. My Outlook 2003 shows
the attachment on the sent email. If I send to someone
using Lotus Notes, the Notes client receives the
attachment. I found KB article 290809, and it sounds
like my problem, but my message format was already set to
HTML as recommended. If I use Plain Text format, the
attachment works, but I don't want to use plain text. I
had no problem with this using Outlook 2000. Please help!!

Are you using Word as your e-mail editor? If yes, try
disabling it and see if the results are the same.

Outside of that, do you have a pda that syncs with
Outlook data?

Why would you subject your recipients to all the junk HTML involves?

I am not using Word as the editor. I do sync a Palm III
with Outlook using Intellisync. Why should that matter?

I also encounter the same problem, but I try to send in plain text format and also disable word editor. The other side still cannot receive the attachment. Is there any other solution apart from this? Seem like is not outlook express giving problem as some receipients using outlook express have no problem in receiving it.
Please help!!!!!!!!
