Check that the version of Outlook is NOT sending using the default format of
Rich Text. Only Outlook can read that format, therefore Windows Mail won't
see any attachments.

Yes it does, but the more likely cause when an Outlook user sends to a
non-Outlook user is the use of RTF email - the Outlook default.
