As it turns out, the email has an attachment that I will need to decode. Header info follows.
Is this something that I can decode with tools that already come on HP-UX 11?

Re: decoding
That'd be uu_de_code, but, ...
> [...] but my man page for uuencode or
> uudecode doesn't mention [...]
Many people who frequent this forum seem to
prefer/promote uuencode for creating e-mail
with attachments, so tend to see it (or
uudecode) as _the_ scheme for dealing with
e-mail attachments. I don't understand why,
but it seems to be true. (It's not MIME,
and so it relies on the receiver being able
to cope with its obsolete scheme.)
I tend to suggest mpack (/munpack) for doing
this kind of thing, because it does MIME,
which is what you have here. Google should
be able to locate a source kit for mpack, or
someone may already have a suitable depot
somewhere. It may also be possible to find
a loose base64 encoder/decoder, but that
might demand much more fooling around to
strip off the headers and separate the
pieces.
I don't do much with this stuff, but I did
manage to build an mpack kit on my main (VMS)
system. As I recall, I started with a Debian
GNU/Linux source kit. My notes say:
ftp://ftp.andrew.cmu.edu/pub/mpack/
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mpack/mpack_1.6-5.diff.gz

Re: decoding
It appears that the '-m' option of 'uuencode'/'uudecode' appears at 11.31. At least there is no mention of it in the 11.23 manpages (or earlier).

Re: decoding
Regarding -m option, then maybe there's hope. I'll see if I can patch it up on my system.
Thanks folks.

Re: decoding
It's seriously under-tested, so no bets, but
there's an mpack source kit under here:
http://antinode.info/dec/sw/mpack.html
If nothing else, the build was clean on an
11.31 (ia64) system, using either the bundled
HP C compiler or GCC. (And munpack did seem
to unpack an old message I had lying around.
I didn't try mpack, but what could go wrong?)
> [...] tools that already come on HP-UX 11?
Actual "uname -a" output is often more
helpful than a vague and imprecise
description.
> Perhaps I'm out of date?
From "11", who can tell?

Re: decoding
Years ago, 1994, I got a tool called mimencode that I use. Not sure where?
mr google finds:
http://examples.oreilly.com/9780596003302/
And there is a tarfile under metamail.
