attachment problem!

sir:

seems there's something wrong with your www4mail servers, not just the
speed they respond to requests, but also the way they
returnattachments.
for example, when I request a webpage:

tsource http://www.ssa.gov/history/early.html

they used to return an attachment named "early.html", which I can
double click to open with my browser. but now the attachment they
return is something called "att00110.txt", and even after I save it as
a *.htm file and then open it with a browser, there's always something
displayed at the top of the page like:

Content-Type: html; name="early.html"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="early.html"
Content-Description:  hyper-text

if it's a binary file, then the problem will be bigger. for example, I
sent the following command:

tsource http://www.ssa.gov/history/pics/dep1b.jpg

and www4mail returned an attachment called "att00124.txt". even after
I save it as a *.jpg file, I still can't open it, no matter what image
processor I use.

I don't think there's anything wrong with my email program, 'cause it
works well with attachments returned by agora.

I wonder if you can suggest me a way to deal with that.
