    Thanks m8! The program Decode Shell helped me! After install, there is just to right-click the .txt and choose "decode" and the .jpg is decoded and saved!

    Cheers!

    It's mime encoded - just rename the files .mim and then extract them using winrar/zip/whatever.

    wow, quite a bump.

    Although virtually all big files use Yenc encoding, quite a few misc small file attachments posted to usenet (like photographs) are often encoded using other, older methods (such as mime, uuencode, etc.. ) Non-supported binary attachment formats will usually appear as a huge dump of text.

    I know that Grabit only supported Yenc encoded attachments.

    That's if anyone is still interested.
