Alan,
I experienced the very same problem on my Mac Plus running Eudora 1.3.1,
and since I couldn't get the email sent again, I had to follow a very
circuituous route to get the file into one piece.
I took the several parts and pasted each of them, in order, into a Word 5.1
document, and then re-saved it very carefully as a text document (no Word
formatting, etc.). Since I didn't know of any Mac application that would
decode the MIME, I then moved the file to my (gasp!) Windows machine so that
I could use WinZip 6.3 to decode the file to its native .JPG format. Worked
perfectly!
If you can get the file sent to you again, and you can use a later version
of Eudora (I think even 1.4.3 will keep the attachment intact), that would
of course be best, but you might have to do some variation on what I did, if
not. Good luck!
Rob
P.S. - What's a "FeetsMac"?
