It might have occurred to you that some mailers automagically encode all attachments (mine does -- PINE 3.96 for UNIX). Most of the Windows-based mailers encode attachments as MIME by default. So it might not be the previous poster's fault if he were unaware of this. In any case, words like "HELL" and "crap" are IMO just a little bit too intransigent and unfriendly for this list, because you sure got my attention. If you were unable to read his post, you were in no way obligated to answer it; but likewise, that didn't mean you had to yell at him. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Orlando Alcantara Andico WWW: http://www2.mozcom.com/~orly/ Email: orly AT mozcom DOT com ICBM: 14 30 00 N 120 59 00 E POTS: (+632) 932-2385
