Can you specify what sort of attachment file is it?

Perhaps you created the attachment with an application your recipients don't
have.

Are you using Outlooks rich text format while your recipient doesn't use
Microsoft Outlook at all? Change your format to plain text or HTML.
If you're using Office 2007 and your recipients are using older versions of
Office, if your attachments are Excel or Word, etc. your recipient needs to
download and install the 2007 Compatibility Pack from the Microsoft site.
If these are not the issue, please clarify the problem with more details.
Please advise what version of office you're using, what type of e-mail
environment you're in (Exchange, POP3, etc.), what type of attachments you're
sending, and what issues your recipeints are having.
