Hm, I'm not sure... but as I understand the purpose of MIME ... it's
work for me ;)
(dll-940219.zip have unzipped very well on my PC).
The problem, I think, is in the mail client you are using.
From my own experience, I know what best mail READER for me is Netscape
navigator,
but SENDER mail with attached files is IE-MAIL. May be I missed some key
options
in both mailers (I try every combination), but attachments from NN can't
read
everybody then attachments from IE have a chance to be understended.
