This is sort of a Public Service anouncement. Most of the people on
this newsgroup are probably already aware that you can send and receive
Binary files via E-mail.

All you need is a little PC program called UU-encode, a shareware
version of which is freely available from most good FTP sites. It
comes in two parts. uuencode.exe and uudecode.exe. You simply
run the decode program on the text file you receive and run the
encode program to create the file that you send. Easy.

Doesn't help with your interface problem though.
