Thanks for your comments. I just posted the first draft of a pure-python library called "pytnef" at python cheeseshop. Note that this is so far merely a conversion of the Ruby library. Some important functionality is missing, there seem to be some problems, but it's a start.
I also tried a few tools that claim to decode TNEF and most of them actually fail to extract attachments according my tests (used winmail.dat attachments saved from Mozilla Thunderbird). So if you'd happen to know of TNEF decoders that _work_, please let me know. Regards, Petri Petri Savolainen wrote: > Hello, > > has anyone seen such a beast?
