It's a problem for those who don't wish to be bothered
w/ yEnc, for whatever reason ... if the proper software
is used, the posting software automatically puts yEnc
in the header ... if not, the poster is using broken
software ... maybe people should let them know,
though some posters won't care ...

Ah! So perhaps that's why I still can't see some yEnc posts despite
buying the necessary software to decode it automatically in OE.
Most annoying (or words to that effect!). :-)


Software to decode yEnc is free.

Yes there is free software but when I tried it you had to save the
photo to your PC and then do through a procedure to decode it, save it
again and then it might be viewable depending on the version of yEnc
that had been used. I do not save photos to my PC, even most of my own
are put straight to DVD unless I delete them first.
I paid for software that is supposed to work seamlessly with OE....we
shall see IDC!



yProxy is free, sits in the background and decodes yEncoded articles and
nothing needs to be saved before viewing. The pictures just appear like
they do when they are UU encoded.

Here is a link to yProxy. http://www.yproxy.com/45fa82be/ I use
yProxy13.exe.
