The primary group of my mail user is set to "lp". Is this correct? I

I use mutt in an office environment that is run by M$. Mutt handles
attachments (such as word docs etc..) very well - it just decodes the stream,
then pressing 'v' allows you to 'view' the file then 's' to save the file to
your hd somewhere...all in all, I'm very happy with mutt also...
