It happens every time -- someone sends NeXTmail to my Vax, and I end
up with a huge uuencoded glob.

I tried ftp'ing the mess to my NeXT and using NeXTmail on it.  It
tried to convert the uuencoded file from 0.9 to 1.0 format, then
showed me the file -- a lot of uuencoded mush in a mail window.

So, my question: If someone sends NeXTmail (with fonts and files and
such stuffed into it) to a machine unable to read it, how do I get it
onto my NeXT in a form which the NeXT mailer can read?
