It's most likely to be a signature. Unless she is using a MAC in which case it could be a *.applefile which is something the mail box is unable to print at this time

Dear Julie,
You recently sent an email to grammacorinne@presto.com with one or more attachments. Unfortunately, at least one of the attachments could not be printed properly.
The above message was sent to a Friend of my Mother. Unfortunately, she did not send any attachments, only an email. And my Mother said she did not receive the email from Julie. I checked Julie's email address against my Mother's Friends list and it is perfect. Any idea what is going on here?

Dear Mark:
I had my customer service person check the log files and you are correct, all of the emails sent got through okay. However, the attachment error message seems to be pointing to a "winmail.dat" file that is attached to those emails. This is most likely some kind of signature file that is embedded as an attachment instead of being placed as plain text within the body of the email. Even though the recipient on a standard email system would see this, the Presto service detects it as an error. So, what I would say is to tell Julie to either not place her signature file on emails to your Mother, or disregard the error notices because she now knows why they are there.
Of course, we will look at creating ways to avoid this type of confusion when improving our service over time.
I hope this helps,
Peter
