I'm the author of tnef - and I it tickles me to see someone mentioning it
before I did :)
Hopefully it can be of some assistance. It is analogous to tar in that
it is meant to unpack the attachments which might be hiding in the
winmail.dat. It can also unpack the RTF markup of the mail message
which is also packed up in the winmail.dat file.
