You have to start up Ms-dos, but I guess thats not a big problem.

I forgot one thing. You allso need to use the following program:
http://www.chromerhino.demon.co.uk/adfopus/

The first program translates the dms file into an adf file (as Trond
described), and the second program is a nice program for extracting
files from adf files.

THANX A LOT. What can I do for you in return ? The music from Lotus III is my alltime
favorite music on the Amiga

Please don't do this again. If I wanted to download a binary, I would've
subscribed to a binary newsgroup.

Then just click "stop" or select another message header when you realise that the
message has an attatchment

In general it's rather inpolite to make several hundreds or thousands
of users to manually stop downloading a message which contains
something they do not want to waste their download time, instead of
just doing like it's been done a long time; putting file available on
www/ftp server or posting it to a binary newsgroup.

Sure, it gives a bit more trouble to _one_ person, but saves the time
of hundreds or thousands of other persons, which is rather sensible...

Some people (like me) download all the news in a single batch, without having
to click on each and every header. The messages are then read offline. With
telephone costs being what they are, this strategy makes a lot of sense -
except when people start posting big binaries. So please don't do that.

I'm in exactly the same situation and feel exactly the same way.

All the best,
