attached is the message which is giving me a problem.  To see the problem,
just save the attachment to a file and open it with pine.

Thanks for the help.

Hello Paul,

  The only thing I could find was a "space", which made the difference.
Pine does not ignore a trailing space after the separation of the parts in
the message. This is a part of your headers and message:

Content-Type: multipart/alternative;
 boundary="------------B784D1A626833E1AC09A2250"
Status: RO
X-Status:
X-Keywords:
X-UID: 1

--------------B784D1A626833E1AC09A2250 
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

  In your message, this separation has a trailing space, there's a space
over the "s" in the word ascii, which probably is the reason why pine is
complaining. When I erased that space (everywhere) I could read the
attachment and messages correctly.

  I hope this helps. By the way, I also had to erase the character ">" in
front of the word "From", so as to make pine accept your mail format.

  Have a nice day,

Eduardo
