You can use mimeStrip available at http://oneguycoding.com/opensource/ mimeStrip has lots of uses. For example I use it in a procmail recipe to do exactly what you are looking for. :0 * ^Mailing-List: .*yahoogroups.com { :0 fw | /usr/local/bin/mimeStrip.pl --dir=${HOME}/attachments :0: lists/yahoo } This recipe will save the attachment to my attachments directory, and strip them from the original email and save it to the lists/yahoo folder. --lonnie _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
