I just open the dat file in Notepad *1)
Then select all text in it, copy and paste it into the message.
*1) I have created a shortcut to Notepad in the C:\Windows\SendTo directory (at the
same time as I deleted the options I never use). Then I can just right-click on any
text file, pick Send to - Notepad to open, view and edit that file.

From the web interface, just click new message or reply and there will be a
small text box below the main window. Click the browse button that is located
next to it, select the file, click post message, and you're all done! :)

Use Lugnet's web-interface to post DATs. There's a "upload file" button
provided. You just click the button, navigate to the correct file, and it
gets uploaded along with the message.
Easy, and you don't have to worry about messing with your line-length
setting (to avoid line wraps).
