I requested this some time back, but I think there are many things further
up the to do list; shame, would be nice.

Thats' a good one.

You can, most times the the part you want is 'part 1' of the post so you
could try something like this. This is a very rough script and only works to
RAM: at the moment and you you have the pain of having to 'OK' the
requesters for each part, as the 'ONREQ' option can not be relied upon

$DESCRIPTION: Stick Uudecode attachments back together.
This script should join the parts of a file which has been
split across a number of messages; I hope and you use it
at your own risk.

ixemul.library (v48)
reqtools.library (v38,1413)
rexxreqtools.library (v37)
Command:
Uudecode (on Aminet, search slrn in News/Comm)
(no version string but the size can be 80352 or 20052)
Instructions:
1) Select but do not open the first part of the file; it must contain
the the starting boundary.
2) Run this script.
3) Enter the number of parts in the first reqester, or if you
run it from a 'shell', give the number as an argument.

Most harvest type programmes can strip the common 'nospam' and 'remove'
type blockers. If I wish to post my Email address to a newsgroup, I put it
in the body of the message 'Jules at what dot where dot co dot uk' whilst
putting a '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' in my news reader, that way I will never
post address on a newsgroup accidentally.
