We use a mixture of mua's here; Lifeline on PC (uuencoded binaries), Eudora
on Mac (BinHexed binaries) and Pine (MIME encoded binaries) on Unix.

Pending the release of Pine for PC and Eudora 2 (MIME compliant), we 
occasionally need to convert an encoded binary attachment from one format 
to another.

Has anyone written filters to accomplish this, i.e.

RFC822 header + uuencoded (or BinHexed) -> MIME

or even the converse?
