I always receive the first part of the file as an attachment but the rest are always inside the body as text. A. The informations for decoding program are included only in the first parts of those e-mails, and your e-mail client treat those e-mails as follows; - treats first parts of e-mail as an encoded file attached. (because there is an encoding starts information on its e-mail body) - treats rest of them as normal text e-mails. (because there are no encoding starts information) There might be some configurations on your e-mail client software not to retrieve encoded text as an attached file in its body.

This doesn't directly answer your question, but please (all of you) contact CodeWeavers directly and show your interest for a FreeBSD port! If, and only if, there is sufficient interest, they _will_ provide such a port.

I managed to get the program to run yesterday for the first time (Note: not a good idea to try to compile and run vmware when you've been updating your source but left your binaries alone!!) and everything seemed to be cool (with the exception of networking -- doesn't seem to see /usr/local/etc/vmware/config for some reason). I started it up to make sure it ran and didn't have any issues. The next time I actually started the virtual machine and was annoyed by the above mentioned network issues (works fine in vmware2), but otherwise all worked as expected. Until I tried to shut my REAL machine down. I got a lot of panics and ended up "Not Very Happy" (TM). I don't know how to get dumps and I don't know if it is necessary -- I'll be glad to try anything with explicit directions. Here's what I've been able to glean: The trouble seems to stem from the rtc kernel module. If I don't start the virtual machine everything unloads successfully when I shut down (vmnet, if_tap, vmmon_up, rtc) but if I *do* start up the virtual machine at some point vmmon_up refuses to unload (device busy) and attempting to unload rtc panics the machine in a major way. At boot I see this: WARNING: driver "rtc" used unreserved major device number 202 WARNING: driver "vmmon" used unreserved major device number 200 /dev/vmmon: Module vmmon: registered with major=200 minor=0 tag=$Name: build-570+ $ /dev/vmmon: Module vmmon: initialized At shutdown I don't have it logged anywhere so here I what I've been able to scribble down as the messages start flying by: WARNING: Driver mistake: destroy_dev 202/0 Then something about "Panic" and a message saying "don't do that!" and a series of messages alternating between starting with CBB0 and CBB1 with identical messages following that containing something about VCARD (I assume it is corrupted memory pages??) I had some file system corruption before I realized that if I commented out the explicit effort to unload rtc in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rtc.sh the kernel would manage to sync the disks before the panics started (presumably because it then tries to force unload rtc as part of the final shutdown). I don't get problems on the next boot anymore with this setup, but I can't say it makes me feel warm and fuzzy to see that stuff on shutdown (runs for 15 seconds or more). I know this isn't terribly precise in detail but maybe someone can help diagnose this thing? Here is uname -a: FreeBSD NitroPhys.welchsmnet.net 5.1-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.1-RELEASE #0: Thu Jun 5 02:55:42 GMT 2003 root@wv1u.btc.adaptec.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Here is a list of relevant installed ports/packages: vmware3-3.2.1-2237_1 rtc-2202.03.05.2_2 linux_base-7.1_5 X is the version that came with 5.1-RELEASE.
