Hm - I must have missed that bit in the original query.
In general, as MIME handles many sorts of files, DOS readers have
a hard time dealing with the results. I have seen various attempts,
but most of them are pretty kludgy.
This is one time that Windows really comes into its own - its
much easier to write MIME-compliant mail readers. It is mainly for
this reason I finaly changed from using KA9Q, and started using
Agent.
I was sorry to see KA9Q go - it serverd me well for years, but
the facilities offered by Agent for both news and mail were the
clinching factor - particularly in trying to reduce my phone-bill!
Regards,
Harry.
