With a growing user-base of T-Online users in Germany here who obviously are using a package consisting of netscape and some internet access software to access the internet from their home PC I'm getting more and more Mime encapsulated mails with appendices. (jpeg in this case) I installed elm+mime and can at least detect what sort of appendix they sent. BTW the senders are total neophytes, they are just clicking buttons on their windoze PC. Me sitting at an alpha screen at home cannot visualize this mail directly. First off, I'm forced to modernize my way of reading mail to keep pace with what is going on there in the DOS/WIN world. And FreeBSD would be good advised to provide solutions to accomplish this out of the box without great installation hassle. Second, for now I would greatly appreciate a tip, how I could convert the mail appendices 'by hand' and transfer them into my home FreeBSD box to view it there under X. --Chris Christoph P. U.
