SOS

I got an email from a UK University. I tried to read the attachment
which type is application/ms-tnef, but I failed to. It is my application
form, which is very important and imminent to me.

Please teach me the way.

It means that someone produced a document in Rich Text Format using a Microsoft
product. RTF is a proprietary standard.

You must contact them again and ask that they send it to you as plain text.

Others on this list might be tempted to comment on the kind of education you
could get from a university that sends documents via the Internet using
formatting that a receipient is unable to use, but I won't.
