Hello,

not too sure if this is a perl 5.8 or a sendmail (8.12.9).

I have made a script that extract, and save the attachment. I work well but.

if a line, in the attachemant is longer than 139 characteres, the complet
output is screwed with line of differnet lenght, containing aditionnal
characters (like "=" ) even outside the attachment.

a loop like

LOG="/tmp/mail";
while (<>) {
print LOG $_;
}

contains the errors if the attachemnt contains long lines.


Any idea ??

Many thanks in advances.

Are you honoring all the MIME headers? If the message has been converted
to quoted-printable, then it needs to be unquoted. This applies to both
the plain text and the attachment portions of the message.
