It looks like the email came from the SourceForge Web mail server and it
apparently assigned the MIME attachment type.

In the message window, "key not bound", in the view attachment window,
"no tagged entries".  If I tag the file attachment, then ; is accepted
and s is interpreted as 'save file' and the rest of the command string
becomes the proposed file name to save.

I tried preceding the command with : instead and that failed.
