I installed add on and still cant open winmail.dat PDF file
The attachments should look like this in the attachment pane:
still can't open
If you can't open the attachment, have your client/ customer or whatever fix their defective copy of Outlook and send real mail attachments not TNEF encoded rubbish. They are spewing defective email every time they click send on a mail with an attachment.
