Electron-Positron Attraction: How Do These Particles Interact?

[benk99nenm312]

I have been doing some thinking and I can't find the answer to my question anywhere, so I was wondering if someone else knew.

My question is simply this: Do electrons and positrons attract each other electromagnetically, or do the antimatter properties of the positron alter the interaction in some way?

The attraction is electromagnetic (positive & negative charges). The matter-antimatter effect is at the actual collision, mutual anihillation leading to a pair of 511 kev gamma rays.
