some of then may appear like that due to yEnc encoding, you need to use a different mail client than Outlook Express to view these, easily.
otherwise they have been chopped up into chunks - you should see they appear in 'groups' with the same filename & 'part 1 of 7' etc.
- to get these highlight all the messages in the 'group' (CTRL & left click on each one) - then right click on the selection & choose 'combine & decode' from the context menu. Once decoded choose the option to 'save attachments' & bob is your fathers brother.
Once you've done this a few times, you will see why heavy users of newsgroups use a news client that sorts all that out for them - as well as Yenc.
- and we havn't started on rar & par files yet
