Hmm, someone sent me a private note whining about me answering this.
Essentially they mope that we should have sent him packing to his helpdesk.
To which I say, anywhere that the behavior of sending encoded-mail to a
plaintext venue can be squished, the better. Adding *why* maillists would
be a plaintext venue, I feel might have been useful to one of us out there
whenever fielding the same question - even on their own internal helpdesk.
This is a question I would have answered for free anywhere, even being
interrupted in the break-room or something.
Rick, if you need more general help getting up to speed with UNIX matters
I can point you at the local user groups listings, BALE and BABE:

Now, back to sysadmin matters: my antispam "attachment detectors" are
catching a bumper crop of viral/trojan attachments this week, one claiming
to be an update from Microsoft. People with gulible end-users, please be
wary...
