Hello,

Are there scripts/tools available to automatically email binary/tar files,
that first use compress/uuencode/split before mailing the files, and that
then reverse the process for incoming files, stripping the mail headers
in the process? We sometimes have to send large binary files (> 1 Mbyte),
and so far we've been using DHL courier services. 

Please email responses, as we don't get a News feed at this site.

Thanks in advance for any advice offered,

- Paul
