Hi, folks.  One of our grad students reports that he can no longer read 
his email with pine or squirrel mail.  Both utilities complain about the 
format of his incoming-mail file (as do mutt and Thunderbird, by the way).

We checked, and indeed the student's mailbox is in an unusual (for us) 
format:

     # cd /var/spool/mail

     # file joeuser
     joeuser: Non-ISO extended-ASCII mail text, with very long lines

I see an occasional mention of this on the net, but I haven't found any 
way to convert the file back to mailbox format.

If you have any suggestions, please pass them along to me.

Thanks.

					- Mike
