Hello,
If I create a word document in Word 2003 (or Excel spreadsheet or PowerPoint
presentation) and send it as an attachment in Outlook 2003, the file size is
changing for both the recipient of the email and even in my own Sent Items.
For example, I created a word doc of 24,064 bytes and sent it to another
email account. I then went into my Sent Items and saved that word doc into a
folder - that word doc was now 26,624 bytes. The recipient also received it
as 26,624 bytes. Outlook appears to be automatically adding some sort of
Summary Information section into the file from looking at them in a hex
editor.
Does this happen for anyone else? And does anyone know how to turn it off?
I would prefer if Outlook would deliver my attachments as is rather than
changing them silently. Also, I have the option "Add properties to
attachments to enable Reply with Changes" unchecked.
Thanks for your help,
Ryan
