Subject: Pine and SUN mailtool attachments - how?

From: [email-masked] (Karl Krieger)

As the subject says: I am using pine but I get loads of email sent
from SUN's mailtool with their non-MIME attachment style.

According to the Pine FAQ, there is a Perl script to convert
SUN's attachments to MIME compliant messages. I got the script
but how on earth can I teach pine to use this script to decode
the mailtool messages and show them as MIME attachments in the
mail box list?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Karl

The description [*] says:  "This is a simple filter ..."
So you have to apply it to your mail filter - not Pine.
