I had tried saving the multiple parts and using a viewer on those but it
says missing EOF or some such. I tried downloading UUXT and enocding the
multiple parts into one file but that gives the same message. Likewise with
the ARexx script uuencode. If I retireve the file that is moved to the
deldir and play that it works fine. But for some reason, only one file ever
makes it to the deldir so that approach won't work either. I must be
missing some basic step since I'm pretty sure I have seen others mention
that they download these types of files.
