Steve and I are  aware of this problem but have not yet tracked it down.
The original test images we ran iff2sun on were loaded onto the sun 
from an Amiga running vt100 with kermit. However, I tried to transfer
these IFF files to another Sun station both with kermit and using uuencode
with email. Both methods gave me the 'compression messed error'.
We are looking into it and will keep you posted.
