I think I am understanading what am I supposed to do.
I will give you all the steps from Pine. Please let me know If I am doing 
any mistake.

1) I saved the file from Pine to my working directory  with a file name
"attached".

2)I went to my  working directory and typed the command "$uudecode
attached"

3)I get back to the prompt without any error message. But when I "ls"
I see a new file called "99 9:27:25 AM".

4) I try to view it and all see is another type binary code I believe.
Here is what I see after I uudecode a file.

PK^C^D^T^@^@^@^H^@^]e\x87%\xb8\xdc\xfex\x94L^@^@^@L^A^@

xddw7^G" \xea\xe7\xd3\xb5\xdfgv\x9e\x9d\x9d\x9d\x99\x

Something like this full of it.

Please Help

Thanks
