To exclude attachments from being processed by the Attachment Service

2. Click the Attachment Server tab.

3. In the Format Extensions field, delete the relevant extension.

Note: Format Extensions is an editable field that lists all the extensions that the Attachment Service will open. A colon is used as a delimiter.

4. Click Apply, then click OK.

5. In Microsoft Windows Administrative Tools, double-click Services.

6. Right-click BlackBerry Attachment Service, then click Stop.

7. Right-click BlackBerry Attachment Service, then click Start.

8. Close the Services window.

For Microsoft Exchange and Novell GroupWise, follow these additional steps:

2. Right-click BlackBerry Dispatcher, then click Stop.

3. Right-click BlackBerry Dispatcher, then click Start.

4. Close the Services window.
