My mistake. Dan was correct. I just  saw the name and figured it was a
word attachment.

You can  tie a macro to  a keystroke and automatically  pipe a message
thru uudecode  to automagically save  those encoded messages.  Here is
mine:
macro attach  .d "| uudecode -c <enter>"

From  the index,  '.d'  causes the  entire message  to  be piped  thru
uudecode which will try to decode all encoded attachments.

Research is the best place to be: you work your buns off, and if it works
you're a hero; if it doesn't, well -- nobody else has done it yet either,
so you're still a valiant nerd.
