Thanks Ed
i'm the one who proposed the original question (and I'm very happy
with the answer, especially as there's a debianesque box here where an apt-get install tnef got the requisite software.

However, I'm not sure that "attachment,dat" is the same thing, tho it won't hurt to fine out.

Most important is the source of the email; if its' from someone you don't know claiming to be in hospital nearing death and with the small some of $US10,000,000 or so looking for a good home, well I've had two of those today. OTOH they didn't have attachment.dat on them either, that I noticed.

I saved one such file to Desktop and KDE saw it as HTML. Opening in
Konqueror showed the text in an unformatted block and again as
formatted.  The pictures were not visible though.
