Winmail.da

[Hazen Valliant-Saunders]

Hey Steve:
	Didn't ya know, SMS (Small Management Server or SBS) is broken tends not to
properley encode informaiton in mail messages, M$ figures if your stupid
enough to buy thier crappy business server then you will also be dumb
enought not to read any RFC's on SMTP or POP mail acess (1273 i think) You
see the encodeing of Base64 messages has a particular format but M$ figured
they would change that and that is why when you use your Mozillia based
browser for mail or any other mail browser (Especially those that aren't
busted, and adhere to RFC and POSIX spec.) you get lovely little unreadable
winmail.dat files.  (Vi should do the trick)
