Where I see this, or 99% of it, is on a mailing list. The listadm keeps
posting notices about this. I don't think anything I say will have too much
effect, in my case. <sigh>
Yep, everyone in the whole world uses Microsoft products to read their mail.
If they don't they should. So Microsoft feels it's fine to just make all
kinds of non-text formats the default.

Re #210: Either that font's not installed on the machine you're
reading it on (text or no) or metamail doesn't have the proper symlinks.
Metamail will try to read the font in, even if it won't display it in a
text-based reader.

I'm glad this situation with MIME formats came up. I use Unix mail
("!mail"). Every once in a while somebody sends me mail with a MIME
attachment. The attachment shows up as junk on my screen. Of course,
I don't know that the mail will have a mime attachment until I've
already read it! I assume the message, including the attachment,
ends up in my mbox.
Is there any way to re-read this mail with a mailer
on Grex that *does* support attachments? I lost an *important* piece
of mail once and don't want it to happen again.

or elm -f mbox (I'd guess from Steve's response that pine assumes your
"folder" is in some subdirectory, but elm doesn't).

I thought that elm didn't handle MIME, or something like that.
Yes, pine by default assumes that folders are in the mail subdirectory.

elm calls metamail when it encounters MIME-encoded messages.
For that matter, you could probably call metamail directly, if you wanted.
I've never done it & don't know the calling sequences off hand.

Pretty much, I think. Katie needs to enter a first item, then some
cfadm person needs to make it public. Valerie's handling that part,
I think.

How come when I send an email to my grex account, and when I go to my inbox
to view it, it shows an error that I cannot go to my inbox?

How are you trying to "go to" your inbox? Exactly what error?
(Just in case: if you're trying to access your mail via pop3, Grex doesn't
support it. You need to log in & use mail or elm or <shudder> pine.)
