I recall getting bin-hex attachments as multi-part e-mail.  That is, multiple
messages for one attachment.  E-mail then was *just* e-mail.  You had to save
the messages, bring them up in an editor (*just* an editor), strip the e-mail
header from each part, concatenate the messages together, and then find a
decoder.  Anybody else remember "POPMail"?  Mac and PC, IIRC.
