Re: [Evolution] Some attachments don't show up in evolution.

Well, I guess 0x0 IS hard to see :) I'm trying to understand why pine
can see these attachments OK. Not that it matters much, but I get
curious. FYI pine list these attachments as (possibly from a different
virus email than the one I mentioned)...

   1     ~4 lines Text/HTML               
   2     98 KB      Audio/X-WAV                                    
   3      0 lines Text/PLAIN                                    
   4    8.8 KB      Application/OCTET-STREAM (Name: "WATERMRK.JPG") 

While evolution tells me nothing (unless I read the source). 

Thanks for the info and I'm not too worried about it. 

Is there a stand alone utility to decode/save these if I were to save
the attachment segments from the message source?
