- In my original posting, I asked for advice on how to
- make NeXTmail readable again after it had been received
- by a regular unix machine.
-
- My deepest gratitude and appreciation to all those nice
- people who helped me out with this problem. I am now a
- happy receiver and reader of NeXTmail items!
-
- The solution:
- 1) Save the body of the message, append it to your
- /usr/spool/mail/username file. Go into the Mail.app.
-
- or
- 2) Copy the whole thing, including header and mail it
- to yourself with non-NeXTmail. cat file > mail username.
-
-
- 3) Remove the header and change the .tar.###.stuff.attach
- phrase to filename.tar.Z. Save it. uudecode file.
- then zcat and untar the resulting files in that order.
-
- It's so wonderful to belong to such a knowledgable and
- caring community of intelligent persons! Thanks to everyone
- in netland who helped me out.
