RFS: tnef -- Tool to unpack MIME application/ms-tnef attachments
I am looking for a sponsor for the package 'tnef'. This is a great
little program for unpacking those winmail.dat attachments that some
of your friends insist on sending you. tnef has been in the Debian
Archives since December 2000 and was recently put up for adoption.
Since I use it and have too many friends that continue to send me
winmail.dat attachments, I'd like to see it remain in Debian.
The package is lintian/linda clean and builds cleanly in
pbuilder-sid.
Thank you in advance for reviewing this package and possibly
sponsoring it.
Package name: tnef
Version: 1.4-1
Upstream author: Mark Simpson <damned@world.std.com>

License: GPL
Description: TNEF is a program for unpacking MIME
attachments of type "application/ms-tnef".
This is a Microsoft only attachment. Due
to the proliferation of Microsoft Outlook
and Exchange mail servers, more and more
mail is encapsulated into this format.
The TNEF program allows one to unpack the
attachments which were encapsulated into
the TNEF attachment. Thus alleviating the
need to use Microsoft Outlook to view the
attachment.
