Linux/Windows

Hi,

Another subject.

I have wasted all day on these stupid Windows machines ! :( I
just hate them !!
First of all, they crashes, - do stupid things, and are terrible
to get running again as they should. I have two windows machines,

that is down. I know one was difficult to get running earlier -
the plug&play stuff - is not smart enough, and will always pick
wrong device drivers, etc. Have 4-5 linux boxes, and one has been
running almost everyday for 1-2 years now. Never any problem,
and when there has been, - it has done file checking and managed
to get running again. ( I try to be fair. But there is no
question about it - I have much less problems with linux )

One of my ISP providers are running some NT servers, and favors
Microsoft - but they have so many peculiar stuff to promote the
use of Microsoft netbrowsers etc. I have so much problems with
it, that - I never use them. But every firm sends attached Excel
stuff, and I have been able to resend it from one ISP to another,
and read it in under Windows. Now I just have problems with this
ISP, - the communications stops in the middle of a download.

Why do I have to make such a long story ???

The thing is: How can I extract an attached MS file from my
Netscape mailbox, and get into a Windows partition ?
Have anyone made some scripts or know how to do this ?

Or resend over a local network ?

1. Extract MS files from linux/Netscape mail box. (main priority
)
2. Resend over local network. ( a second option )

Any ideas, or help ?
