That means anyone receiving your e-mail with that filetype and using Outlook would also have the attachment blocked (and once blocked the attachment is thereafter never available even after unblocking that filetype). So just because you could send it doesn't mean the recipient can get it. You could use the AttachmentOptions add-on to Outlook (find it at www.slipstick.com) but only might let you attach the file. It won't do anything at the other end for the recipient that cannot see that attachment that is blocked on their end. You could rename the file to something else, like use .tmxp for its extension and tell the recipient to name it back to .tmp on their end. Or you could stick it in a .zip archive file. There is nothing that demands the file actually have an extension of .tmp. Even your requirements or those of the recipient are irrelevant since a file can be renamed anything you need to get around the problem. Also, even if it is a temporary file on your system, obviously it is not temporary to you use of it, so rename it appropriate to whatever created it and send the renamed file.

Just how is you unblocking .tmp files going to do anything for the recipient who might also be blocking on .tmp files? When I attach "hazardous" files, Outlook warns me. It doesn't strip the attachment. If I heed the warning and do not attach then there is no attachment to strip out. If I ignore and attach the file anyway, Outlook attaches the file and sends it despite the warning that the recipient may not be able to use the attachment.
