(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***) Package: kmail Version: KDE 2.1.1 Severity: wishlist Installed from: RedHat RPMs Compiler: Not Specified OS: Linux OS/Compiler notes: This is OS agnostic I've seen is actually a feature issue NOTE: This is related to bug #21988 MS OutLook and family send "ms-tnef" attachments. These are broken MIME encoded attachments that hold formatting information and what other email programs think of as attachments. The formating info is a waste but if you want to get the doc and xls files that your MS using co-worker mails you then you need to decode the attachment. I found tnef (CLI app) and fentun (X app) which can both decode these files however it is a manual process and I am never certain if there is any real attachment in the thing. REQUEST: I would like to have a method of automatically piping attachments through a user defined decoder. (This might be handy for automating pgp or other decoding as well.) Thanks!

You can do that with filters ("filter app"). Regards Daniel --=20 Daniel Naber Paul-Gerhardt-Str. 2 33332 Guetersloh Germany Tel. 05241-59371 Mobil 0170-4819674
