This can also be done in Eudora Lite 3.1.1 on the Macintosh. It does
give a warning (called an "Alert" in Macjargon):

   "The document <filename1> says it is a copy of <filename2>.
   If you are sure it is a lgitimate copy of <filename2> I will
   finish unpacking it and launch it."

You are given the options of unpacking it, unpacking and launching
it, or doing nothing. To illustrate this point I have attached a
very short executable program called "Cheshire" to this note. If
youi have a Macintosh you will be able to execute it (it is cute).
I don't know what it will do to the machines of the rest of you
TRS-80 compatible types, probably leave stains and deposits!

I think it is important to realize that one should not always say
"OK" to these alerts. You should think first. Macintosh users have
more opportunity to do so since we don't waste time reading manuals.

Anyone want a cookie?
