Christine Gilmore's message is to the point. I use Mulberry at my office
and I can read almost anything and open enclosures in all formats. However,
at home (and sometimes at the office) I use Pine, which depends on straight
ASCII and if anyone sends enclosures I have to go through various computing
acrobatics to download the file and read it (I usually don't bother and try
later at school.) Given the wide variety of email applications, it helps to
use the simplest format. (and not to load up the inbox with big attachments
that take up valuable disk space on the mail server).
Always ready to read messages of any size/length, but concerned to keep it
all manageable!
