Internally we have a mixture of Eudora (Windows/MAC), Zmail (Windows, Motif &
"character"), Embla from ICL and Mail-It from Unipalm and a "home-grown"
MIME<->Uniplex translater. We don't have this problem. Oh - almost forgot, we
also have some users using Netmanage's ChameleonNFS's MIME mail tool (a Windows
TCP product).
