I have found that if you stuff a file with StuffIt (which puts all the info
into the data fork), then FTP the file (I've tried this only with a VMS
machine), then FTP the file back and unStuffIt, it works just fine.
You DO get a warning from StuffIT that the file header (or some such nonsense)
is screwed up, but it still manages to extract the file properly.  I guess this
is not an entirely reliable method to do it, but for sending BINHEX to someone
so you can do things properly.....
