[PLUG] Acad drawing file

This is disturbing.  I was sent a .dwg file (autocad drawing) as an
attachment.  I use mutt on Linux to do my mail.  I saved the attachment
and tried to open the file with autocad.  The file was corrupt and I
could not open it.  The same thing happened when it had been zipped.
The only way it worked is forwarding it (before even opening it) to
myself on my windows box and using Outlook to save it.
Can this really be true?  Wonder why.
