Hi!

I have question about attachments: Is it possible to set some filter to
force pine for automatic saving any attachments into specified directory?

Regards

Murphy

Would this not also automatically save all those annoying html attachments
that users insist on using for E-mail too? Those are attachmants too :-)

No, Pine can't do this.  I suspect it'd be pretty easy to find a script or
something that does the job, and just have your .forward file pass a copy
along to the script at delivery time in addition to delivering the message
to your Inbox.  Of course, you'd want to put some restrictions on what
gets decoded.  For starters, I'd make sure text/html and text/plain
attachments aren't saved to files automatically.
