Hello,

i Have Mailscanner 4.83.25 as gateway for my exchange 2010.

Some users receive bad mail with winmail.what is weird is that same email sent 
from outside to multiple recipients, will be good for three users and the last 
has winmail.dat.
I look in logs and i found this :

It is problem with my mailwatch ?
I found that others guys on forum had update TNEF.PM with the last version, 
how to do that  ?
