Ian Mortimer pointed me towards TED at http://www.nllgg.nl/Ted/index.html
This is a rich text processor for Unix. I think I'll give it a try, but
it is likely to still require some manual intervention.

Other comments ranged from using a PC like the rest of the world, to
writing a script to extract all the rtf notation to essentially
continuing to ignore the d_at_mned rtf messages.


original post:

Hello,
I read and write my mail using my tru64 system. We seem to have a lot
of folks submitting their mail in rich text format. I usually just
ignore them. On occasion I save the message as text, then point
Netscape at the text file so I can read it without having to parse
the message out of the medium.

I was wondering if anybody had a better method of reading the rtf
messages on our Dec systems?

Thanks,
           rich
