You need to use uudecode and then uncompress. There is no need to
strip off the header. If the archive is mailed in several parts cat them
into one file and remove the header/trailers in the middle of the file
leaving the ones at the beginning and end alone. There is a file called
uudecode.help ,or something similar, that explains this in detail. Use the
GET command and read it if this doesn't help.
