php and usenet questions

[Megienos]

Hi,

I'm trying to build a PHP interface to read usenet newsgroups and especially to read binary messages and download single or multi-parts attachements.

The problem is that standard php function (e.g. imap_blabla) tell me that these messages are "plain" and/or not multi-part when clearly they are.

I've been trying to find functions and classes to help but without success. I think I need something handling uudecode , correct ?

Does anyone could tell me how to achieve that?

Thx

anyone? 🙁

I have been searching for something like this also but gave up...

I have been using the following perl script instead and it works great for binaries and decoding.
