TF> What is the file extension of the attachment?

It  won't  have  a  file  extension, its coming from a macintosh, file
information  is  actually  stored in a separate (hidden) file on a mac
system, if I remember correctly.

The  lack  of  a file extension, however, is not the problem (well, it
shouldn't be).

The  issue must be in the encoding method used by the mac email client
being used.

View  the  source  (F9)  and  see  if  you can find any mention of the
encoding  method used, and if it follows the correct format, or if its
something completely made up :)

Depending  on what the issue is, you might be able to copy the encoded
file to another text file, and then use a separate decoding program (I
think winzip even does that type of stuff these days)
