Can someone tell me how I can D/L zipped files (PUD) here?  One thing worth
mentioning, I use a non-graphical mail reader that is strictly a unix system
I dial.  Can I do this?

Thanks in advance.

Save the message to a file named textfile.txt or something. Then exit mail (or
pine, or whichever mail reader), and type the following:

uudecode textfile.txt > outfile.zip

That should recreate the ZIP file.  If the zip file was MIMEd, you'd need to
use pine to restore it.
