support decoding attachments yet.

Does that decode MIME/Base64 as well as regular
uuencoding?  dOh!  Nevermind... I see "-m" in there now.  Thanks for the
pointer.

I'm looking at CSCMail, which is a GTK client written in perl.  I don't
like KMail very much, but I haven't heard of or looked at Messenger
(unless you're referring to Netscape's email client which is horrid).

I still prefer Pine, but CSCMail doesn't seem to support decoding natively
yet.

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of HTML mail either.

Why not use KMail, or Messenger if you are running KDE?  Vast improvement over the 
command-line, and easy.

Some people don't like html mail,  but I think it's an improvement.

[expert] MIME/Base64 cmdline decoding

2000-03-08 Thread nucleus

Is there a way to decode MIME/Bas64 encoded files on the commandline?  Reason being, 
I'm playing with a mail editor called CSCMail and it doesn't support decoding 
attachments yet.

Probably really simple, but I've never had to do it before...
