DAT files

[daddy123]

Hey guys,
Question; what do you use to open a DAT file sent through email(apparently a picture of some kind)?:)

[Felix]

DAT files usually are used to store the registry. This means, email them usualy makes no sense. I know quite a bunch of image formats but I've never heard from an image format called DAT.

What is the file named?

What did the sender comment the file?

If you have received a Winmail.dat file by e-mail, check out the following MS document:
