i was given a 20+MB text file at work with an archive of some emails from some years ago. i was asked to recover some of the data and all the attachments which are primarily encrypted (?).

the text of file shows that the attachments are either base-64 or uuencoded.

i tried to find an encoder/decoder on google, but a lot of the pages are dead or the programs don't work in XP.

anyone know of a good (FREE) program (preferrably NOT a command-line program) that'll work in XP or at least win98? ideally i'd like to NOT have to copy the coded text out into a separate file to separate it from the readable regular email text, but if i have to, i have to....

thanks much.
