Problem
When you send an Office 2007 docx, xlsx, etc. file attachment in Eudora 6 or 7, the recipient receives the file without the trailing "x" on the attachment file. Thus, the file will not open correctly until the x is added back to the file extension.
Solution
Close Eudora
Locate and make a backup of Eudora.ini
Open Eudora.ini
Delete the entire [Mappings] section, ONLY the [Mappings] section. (BE CAREFUL)
Save and Close Euroda.ini
Locate and make a backup of deudora.ini
Open deudora.ini
Directly under the [Mappings] section, and before all the other entries, paste the settings below.
both=docx,,,, both=docm,,,, both=dotx,,,, both=dotm,,,, both=xlsx,,,, both=xlsm,,,, both=xltx,,,, both=xltm,,,, both=xlsb,,,, both=xlam,,,, both=pptx,,,, both=pptm,,,, both=potx,,,, both=potm,,,, both=ppam,,,, both=ppsx,,,, both=ppsm,,,, both=sldx,,,, both=sldm,,,, both=thmx,,,,
It should look like this:
[Mappings]
<the settings above>
<then the original data>
