RE: problem with attachments on email from 400

Mike,

I can only offer background on the string of characters you are seeing.
That is base64 encoding of the attachment data.  ( the 4 * 6 bits of every 3
bytes of the attachment data are represented by 4 characters ( from a 64
character character set ))

A MIME formated email message is composes of "parts".  the parts are
separated from each other by a unique "part boundary string".  The part
boundary string is defined in the first part of the message.

The email client expects the part boundary string to be preceeded and
followed by CRLF pairs.

So what might be happening is that the boundary string is not present, it is
not bounded by the correct CRLF sequence, or even remotely possible, the
boundary string occurs as data in the message itself.

Subject: problem with attachments on email from 400


I have 2 issues that i need to resolve.

The biggest is on our Test box when i send an attachment it ends up like
this

LDE4LjYxICAgICAgLDE1LjQxICAgICAgLDY4LjY3ICAgICAgLDEgICAgICAgICwx

LjE0ICAgICAgICwuMCAgICAgICAgICwuMDAgICAgICAgICwtMzEuOTYgICAgICwt

NC4xNSAgICAgICw1MTQuMDAgICAgICAgICAsMjU1LjAwICAgICAgICAgLC42MSAg

ICAsLjQ4ICAsIkxPU1MxWSAgIiwiICAgICAgICAiLC0zLjY2ICAgICAgLCIgICAg

ICAgICIsMCAgICAgICAgICAsMA0KNTMyOTE0ICAgLCIgICAgIDIwNDE3MTg3ODAi



Any idea what might cause this.



I've also noticed that on our test box when i access a document on the
ifs i have to preface the folder name with a '/'  like
/PDFFLR/DOCUMENT.PDF

however on our production box i can specify PDFFLR/DOCUMENT.PDF without
the preceding '/'



I'm guessing i may have something setup incorrectly, but not sure what
that would be.



Thanks

Mike
