Attachments Changed to WinMail.dat

If I open e-mails with attachments sent from an Outlook E-Mail account on my phone, the phone is converting the attachments to WinMail.dat. If I open the same E-Mail on my windows 10 computer, the attachments show up correctly. This used to work without issues. This just started happening recently, maybe after the recent Oreo updates, but I'm not exactly sure when.

The e-mail also adds the following text.
