netscape mail issues

Don't know if this is too in-depth for the ".. Dummies .." forum, but I figured I'd try this one first.

I have a file from a client that I need to save to our UNIX server. If the file is sent as an email attachment from UNIX (via command line or Twiggi Mail), the following occurs: if the email is opened and the attachment is saved from Netscape Mail, there are greater than (">") signs inserted in the data; however, if the email is opened and the attachment saved from Twiggi Mail, there is no data corruption; also, if I send the file to myself from Netscape Mail to Netscape Mail from my Windows machine (I log onto the server through Putty), there is no data corruption.

I am looking for a complete explanation to supply "he who writes the checks" tomorrow, so any insightful opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks In Advance,
Brett
