John's attachment was a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation file. If you
don't have PowerPoint, you won't be able to view it.
However, as it was an attachment and not embedded in the message, I'm
surprised you were unable to at least receive it and puzzled that strings
from the file were in your copy of the message itself.
Your email software would appear to be CTM Powermail 3.0.5(with which I'm
not familiar). Given that attachments are a routine part of today's email,
you might want to consider a change or an upgrade.
Regarding the joke, you didn't miss much. It was very lame. <g>
Also, John doesn't seem to have been paying attention to the various
comments we see here from time to time, regarding the undesirability of
attachments or of HTML-format messages on a list server.
