I've been fighting with this, too. I get a lot of it from Outlook people. The problem I'm running into is that the text/plain portion doesn't seem to decode properly (I'm sure it's a configuration issue on my part), but that lynx -dump does decode it. As soon as I get around to tackling this, I'll try to come back and reply again. Happy New Year Greg --- -
