QMPro 1.53 and OLX 1.53 use the Tomcat file attach protocol
which, AFAIK, is supported by the following mail doors:
       WildCat: TomCat/wcMAIL
       TBBS: QSO
       GAP: MainMail
       PCBoard: Cam-Mail
       PCBoard: Qmail
Check with your SysOp.
When you bring up a message with a file attached, a flag "*ATT*"
(less the quote marks) will be displayed in the message header
area.  I believe the only thing you can configure regarding the
receiving of file attachments is the flag color set.
You can copy the attached file to the directory of your choice by
activating the [M]essage menu on the upper menu bar, selecting
[C]opy attachment, and editing the desired file path.
To test things out send a REP message to yourself with a small
file attached in a local, Private conference which the SysOp has
enabled the file attach feature.
