Subject: How do I Download GIF with ZTerm?

I am using PINE 3.91 (UNIX) from my MAC with ZTerm 1.0b3. I am unable to 
save non-text (e.g., images) to my hard drive. How do I do this with 
"message body" or "attachments"?

When I tried to download Email GIF, PINE gave me the following message:
"[Part 1, Image/GIF  11KB]
  [Can not display this part. Use the "V" command to save in a file]"

Then I pressed "V" and got:
 " 1   11 KB      Image
  [Message 1 has only one part (the message body), and no attachments.]"

Pressing "S" gives me:
"Copy attachment to file in current directory:"

What configurations/commands are needed for Pine, UNIX and/or ZTerm?

...so what part of this don't you understand?  You save the file in your 
home directory on the unix server and then use zmodem to download it to 
your local hard drive...you've done part of the job..just finish it off!

It works only if the file is in text format. I download it using the "sz" 
command. The text file gets downloaded onto my hard drive, as I wish. 
But, if the file is in another format (e.g., MS Word), nothing ends up on 
my drive. ZTerm reports that there were "too many errors" to process the 
request: "Data CRC error@o".

If you have the current Pine 3.92 release, go to the Setup/Config
screen and set the "download-command" to the command to download a
file, e.g. "sz".  Then the Export command and SaveAttachment commands
will have a "^V" option to download the message/attachment directly to
your computer.
