    Hi, hope that you have already found a solution for your issue.

    After searching the internet inside out for more than 12 hours, this fixed it:

    Set-RemoteDomain Default -TNEFEnabled $false

    Details: https://gcits.com/knowledge-base/how-to-fix-the-winmail-dat-attachment-issue/

    The post is old, but I still got the same issue in 2020, and it is not well-explained by MS, hope my reply makes life easier for someone 🙂

      I keep getting "The term 'Set-RemoteDomain' is not recognized as name of a cmdlet(...)" Mensage even after retracing and copy-pasting all steps. Anyone had that problem?
