Hi

When using webmail from our SBS 2003 server .xlsx file attachements download as .zip files.

Has anyone got a fix for this?
 
Not sure how to stop them from downloading as a .zip but renaming the actual downloaded file from .zip to .xlsx allows the user to open it properly again. I've noticed this happening sometimes on our OWA with the newer office formats
 
Is .xlsx added to MIME types in IIS? (it's not by default with iis6).

From what i've seen this is only an issue with IE8 and can be resolved by doing the above or adding the OWA site to trusted sites.
