Subject: Re: Mail.dlu blob?
Hello. I have one addition to the following advice which was excellent. I
have also seen a bad dlu file with many lines with the period, (full stop)
by themselves with no messages between them. You should delete these lines.
You may also decide to isolate your binary message into a dlu file of its
own. To do this find the +ok which starts that one message. Include that
line and the rest of the message in a block in your text editor. End the
block before the next +ok in mail.dlu. Save the block with another name
like temp.dlu. When you bring nettamer back up you'll see temp.dlu in the
list. You can open it up and then try to decode the attachment. Hope this
helps. Good luck!
