I find it hard to believe that someone managed to get
that "story" past their editor - what a complete joke.
Maybe they should be writing about how its so totally
rediculous that email programs are able to do such things
with attachments. If people want this problem to go away
then they need to make some hard decisions about how
things like MIME and attachments work, you can't have
your cake and eat it folks.
Regards,
Neil.
