I don't know where to get dump and head commands for my very old,
updated Windows XP Pro. SP3 machine. However, I can see the texts in
mine that I left in for the decoding in its beginning:

OK, lets start over. The text you pasted above should start with a /
to be a valid base64 encoded jpg file. Assuming it really has it and
you missed it when you pasted here:

Which appears to be a valid exif formated jpg taken with an Apple
iphone 4s.
If you take the original text file attachment and copy it to a file
named somefile.txt. Edit somefile.txt to remove all the text before
the /9j/4S32R and remove everything at the end starting with
--Apple-Mail-ABD6ED3D-0515-4E05-BC44-0EC8E2F9C77B. Run somefile.txt
through a base64 decoder (telling it to ignore bad characters) to
produce a decoded file named somefile.jpg:
base64 -di somefile.txt somefile.jpg
You should end up with a jpg file that can be viewed with SeaMonkey or
any other program capable of viewing a jpg. If that doesn't work I
have no further suggestions.
I can't even decode yet. :P
base64 -di infile.txt outfile.jpg
$ base64 -di encoded.txt decoded.jpg
base64: extra operand `encoded.txt'
Try `base64 --help' for more information.
