As it says on the bounce, improperly configured Outlook settings prevent
the message from being properly analyzed. Follow the instructions and
change the outgoing message format to either HTML or Plain Text, as "Rich
Text" is proprietary, has been obsolete for over a decade, and is
potentially dangerous for your users.

Additionally, it could be dependent on whether you're using the internal or external TNEF decoder. Query the archives for TNEF and you'll find lots of posts about this issue. No perfect solutions however.

I'll see it every once in a while from external users that are using Microsoft email clients. I haven't had a problem lately however. My settings are:
Expand TNEF = yes
Use TNEF Contents = replace
Deliver Unparsable TNEF = no
TNEF Expander = internal
TNEF Timeout = 120

IIRC, when I began using "Use TNEF Contents = replace" things got better.
