winmail.dat enclosure ... reading on an Apple

I have become a passed master at Word documents and Excel spread sheets! How about an attached file winmail.dat?
winmail.dat is used by thing like Microsoft Outlook ... so you can easily read it if you have Microsoft Outlook too. But I haven't.
Solution? TNEF's Enough from http://www.joshjacob.com/macdev/tnef/.
Drag and drop (sorry - this is a Mac world solution!) your winmail.dat file onto the application, and it'll be revealed to be a container like a tar or zip of stuffit file with loads of other files held in it. Click on the one you want (sorry - this is a Mac solution!) and you can get at that individual component.
