Not me.  But then, I also use Pegasus.  I wonder if the file in 
question isn't in rtf format?  It may be something in somebody's 
mailer, or perhaps your settings in Pegasus are sending in rtf 
format or something similar and his mailer can't decipher it.  If you 
need help checking out the settings in Pegasus, drop me a note off-
list.
