Subject: MS-TNEF Files?

I have recently recieved an attachment to an e-mail of the type
"ms-tnef."  I am unable to produce any recognizable text or images from
this file. I noticed you sent in a question regarding a similar
occurance last November. Have you figured out what to do with these
ms-tnef files? I would appreciate any info you have obtained on how to
view them.

Thanks,
Brian Brocker

Don't bother it's MS-****, the data in there is normally things like
font changes, bold, italic and similar stuff. Just tell whomever sent
it that if they send a message like it to a mailing list they're likely
to feel like they've been mailbombed!

That file was produced with Microsoft's latest OS, TN 5.0. You need a copy
of that and the service--pack of 4th March, patchlevel 1.4.97.

Best thing to do is to write a message to Microsoft and tell them that you
need those files urgently. They'll certainly be more than helpful.

Enjoy,
Robin
