Joseph, it was rather complicated to have your text extracted, decoded, and
reformatted (manually). No, I do *not* use Pegasus Mail. It should be
possible to obtain an ASCII (=plain text) output from your MSWORD 4 WINDOWS
(TM) program. You can send ASCII attachments with your mailer directly (not
uuencoded). I think many subscribers to this list would appreciate such
(more machine & user friendly) format. Many thanks for this little help!

Kind regards
Jan
