I explain how to use tnef to list the files inside; and how some
winmail.dat files have no files at all in them.  I might also explain
how to use its --debug and --verbose switches to double check.  I also
usually ask for a copy of the file and I verify that there was nothing
in it (in case it is a example of something I don't currently handle).

Ciao
