Dear All, After updating SuSE Linux 8.2 Pro to Version 9.1 Pro I noticed that uudeview / xdeview does not work anymore. Before I have successfully switch to locale UTF-8 and converted filenames and files as necessary. Symptoms: Trying to uudeview/xdeview a Mozilla Newsgroupfile like 'Drafts' No matter what combination of options I use, it hangs up with the first message/content in hte file and does not load any further. Decoding is impossible. Any ideas ?? A bug in uudecode 0.5.20 ?? I deinstalled and installed the old version uudeview 0.5.18-125. It works as it used to without any problems.

It can be worked around by removing the mail headers before uudeviewing (though that might be difficult to do from Mozilla). I'd report it to the author. Maybe it's some interaction with the UTF-8 change in 9.1. --
