Extract files from winmail.dat

on Mastodon

If you ever receive a mail with an attachment named "winmail.dat" then

you may be disappointed. It is a special format used by Microsoft

Exchange, it contains the files attached to the mail and need some

specific software to extract them.

Hopefully, there is a simple and effecient utility named **tnef** to

extract the files.

Install it: `pkg_add tnef`

List files: `tnef -t winmail.dat`

Extract files: `tnef winmail.dat`

That's all!
