ha, well, I'm concerned about the attachments people send -
these all get encapsulated in the 'winmail.dat'.

Also, It is just OL that tnef's (for now!).  I try to train my
users and friends to only send plain text, but I'm getting
tired of hearing myself say "sorry, couldn't read your mail,
send it plain text".  (and then the 15 minute phone
conversation on how to make their client DO that).

Hmm, I've got savannah's archive list and don't really see a
whole lot of discussion on tnef or winmail.dat.  Do you know of
any other (maybe older?) archives?  Thanks.
