Any recomendations ? First you should save the attachments to a file in windows. I recommend putting the files in the c:\ directory for simplicity later in the procedure. Now that you have the attachments in a file in windows you don't need to worry about email anymore. You still have to get these files over to the BSD side of your system. You don't need a special program to move these files to BSD. You already have everything you need. Boot into FreeBSD Mount your DOS partition Copy files from the dos partition to BSD Unmount your DOS partition Have fun, | Stop warning me about the latest virus. Learn more...
