Jason,

In message "using attachments in pine?", you write:
>How do I get a file that I made in wordperfect for windows and use it in 
>an attachment in a message I am sending using pine?

I don't know about details specific to WordPerfect, but in general, when
editing the message's header, just use the ^J command (see bottom of
window) to get a prompt for a filename.  Entering the filename will cause
it to be attached to the message.  You can also enter ^T at this prompt to
get a list of ALL of the files in the current directory, from which you
can easily select the one you want.

Suggestion: to reduce your impact on the network, compress the file
before sending it.  This is not done in pine (at least, not that I
know of).  Be sure that the recipient can decompress it, before you
send a compressed file.
