Summary:
Running version pgnus-80, how would one save a *.tar attachment to
file from a recieved e-mail with tar file attached? When moving to
the button and pressing <RET>, dired "tar" mode is called in an 'mm'
buffer. Of course one could use those commands to work with the
files, save them etc. But how about just a direct save to file. I
find no commands for that with C-h m in summary buffer or article
buffer.
When recieving a *tar.gz file then I am given the opportunity to save
it direct to file when pressing <RET> on its button. The same
approach with a *.tar file calls up dired and displays the tarred
files.

You can save *any* attachment to a file by hitting `o' over the
button.
You can pipe any attachment through a command by hitting `|' over the
button.
