Whenever someone sends me something in MIME, I just shudder 'cause it takes
forever to download via the Microsoft Exchange program I use, my system grinds
to a near-halt and then, 10 minutes or so later, there's this bunch of
unrelated characters and symbols sitting on my screen that I have nooooooo
idea what to do with.  Sooo... I delete the whole thing!   Uhhhhh.... without
ever having seen what was sent to me.

In other words, while I'm pretty sure I have the needed graphic viewers
somewhere on my system, I haven't a CLUE how to utilize 'em ... even IF I
could find 'em!

When graphics or binary files are attached to an e-mail message they
are usually MIME encoded which actually converts them to text. These
are then decoded on the receiving end. It is also possible to
utilize a great deal of the Internet with just e-mail access. This is
covered in two documents, EMAIL4U and GETIT4U.

If anyone wishes copies of these documents just e-mail me

A program is available on the Net called  CSHOW. This is a viewer
which will handle most kinds of graphics.
