Ludmilla,

First off, this isn't a Netscape newsgroup.  Netscape apps aren't generally 
discussed here, just Mozilla.

Just so happens you struck upon a subject near and dear to me at the 
moment.  In short, the answer is no.  Each attachment must be saved 
individually from each message.  The same is presently also true for 
Mozilla's mail client.

The reason for this is that the attached files are stored as an actual part 
of that message in an encoded format.  Neither Netscape nor Mozilla decode 
the attachment until you manually go to access it.

Alternatives to this are being discussed in an earlier thread above if you 
are interested in why this is the case.

Later on,
