Hello, When I sent a zipped file from Outlook Express to a person using Pine on a Linux system, she reported that the attachment appeared as part of the message. When she sent an attachment from Pine I was able to handle it in Outlook Express with no problem. She also says that she has received attachments from others using Outlook Express that worked fine. Is there something I need to set in Outlook Express to make attachments recognizable by Pine? Sorry for asking an essentially Windows question, but this is the only place where someone might know.
