Maybe I missed something entirely obvious ... but
how do you attach an 8 bit file to a Pine message?

Thanks!

When you are in the compose message mode, there is a field in the header above
Message Text by the name of Attchmnt. That field is for attaching files. In that
field put the filename with the full pathname and that should do the trick. If
you do not remember the path, just do Ctrl-t, while in the attachment field and
it will take you to your directory.

In the header area, press ^J (ctrl-j), which will ask you for a file to 
attach and a comment to go along with the file.  Your attached file will 
be MIMEd and sent.  
Does your recipient use Pine or another MTA with MIME compatibility?

If not, your recipient will need mpack/munpack to decode your 
attachment or you will have to uuencode your binary file and read it into 
your message with ^R.
