    In ACT! email options (Edit ->Preference ->Email options)
    we have only Plain Text and HTML options (no RTF)we have
    tried both the options but it did not make any difference.
    Interesting thing is when we send the same email with same
    attachement from within ACT! email client (which infact
    uses Outlook 2000 interface)there is no issue. The email
    gets to recepient(s) with the actual attachement.
