OK,OK I give about the =20 thingys

Well, look at it this way.  At least we know your cats don't do MIME routines.

[ducks and covers his head to escape the groans, snickering]

Actually, maybe it would be better if they did - wouldn't you like to see Gene's
cats do their mime of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof?  

OK, OK...two pun minimum [is that like two drink minimum?]

OK, Cheryl is right. I haven't read all of the responses but the jist is, 
Gene is using MIME.  I use Eudora Pro and it is set for MIME.  Until now 
this has not been a problem because everyone else here at Fujitsu is using 
Eudora Pro.  Our company standard is uuencode, which have switch back to. 
Finally, in at least one case I had used a special character, I fixed it.
     
I'm happy to know you all cared enough to answer, I wish, however, it had 
been my cats.  UUencode seems so prosaic.
