It uses uuencode to convert images, etc into text. This recipe from the third hit (http://www.procmail.org/SmartList-3.15/SmartList/examples/putfile) on Google from "procmail uudecode attachment" does part of what Bob wants: :0 bw * ^Content-Transfer-Encoding:[ ]*(x-)?uuencode | sed -e "s:^begin [0-7]*[0-7]\([0-7]\)[0-7].*$:begin 6\14 $file:" | \ uudecode >$file which decodes the attachment to a file. You could then pipe it through to mpack. The details of getting it to work shouldn't be too difficult. -- Jim Crumley |Twin Cities Linux Users Group Mailing List (TCLUG) crumley at fields.space.umn.edu |Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Ruthless Debian Zealot |http://www.mn-linux.org/ Never laugh at live dragons |Dmitry's free,Jon's next? http://faircopyright.org _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
