- Does anyone have patches for trn which will interface it to metamail? Is
- anyone working on MIME in NEWS? It seems to me that this news group would
- be a likely place to start. The thing about MIME is that there are so few
- good authoring tools that it is not practical to use for day to day stuff.
- A "one to many" correspondence like posting news is a better application for
- MIME right now. The more people read multi media mail the more use they'll
- see for it. Below is a bit of richtext. If you do not have a MIME smart
- news reader you will see a lot of formating codes.
