[muglo] Re: OS 8.1 and Mail

Eric's right I have found 9.2 to be a pain in the ....  At home though 
on my silver 733 G4 it works fine, but I don't have all my software 
running on it.

Does anybody use Mail in OS X?  It seems to give messages to recipients 
that the attachment is missing even when it isn't.  And sometime when I 
get zipped files, all I see is pages of gobbledegook.  The OS X version 
of Eudora handles the same attachment without a problem, once you 
realize that the line of text 'xxxxx.exe' is actually the attachment.
