TNEF / winmail.dat decoding

[f4242]

Hello,

I see there that the tnef utility is already installed in PMG. Is there a way to make PMG to automatically decode/extract winmail.dat files so non-outlook users can see the attached files?

Thanks!

Hi !
I think, a better way is at user side, for Thunderbird check the "LookOut" Plugin ...
Cheers,

Yeah I know, but I prefer to configure thing one time on a server instead of many time on user's desktops. The LookOut extension work great on Thunderbird, but there is still issues with Outlook Mac (yeah, even MS doesn't support that crap on Mac) and webmail.

There's no a native way to convert tnef/wimail.dat in txt file built in in pmg stuff.
One (not so simple) way to implement it is via mimedefang, which is btw a milter which will be plugged in postfix and come just before the pmg filtering engine (pmg-smtp-filter service).

Here a link to implement it: https://www.axigen.com/knowledgebas...-attachments-received-in-TNEF-format_339.html

Any tips or resources for doing this with Proxmox? I can get mimedefang installed and configured but a bit lost at hooking it into postfix (the walkthrough uses Axigen's GUI to do the hook.
