Subject: gnus sends corrupt attachments
Date: 18 Sep 1999 22:40:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m23dwbipxv.fsf@sophia.axel.nom> (raw)
i am using pgnus 0.96 and am having some trouble with attachments.
when i attach a binary (e.g., pdf or zip file) the file gets
corrupted. the problem is with sending since 1) i can receive
attachments sent with other MUAs (mutt or netscape), and 2) other MUAs
(mutt) receive the same corrupted attachment.
i notice by looking at the received binary that i get extra line
breaks preceeded by a !.
here is an excerpt from the tail of a pdf file. (please excuse long lines)
orig ending
R^M/Info 1 0 R^M/ID [<5c657a9ab424633503301772053391a4><5c657a9ab424633503301772053391a4>]^M>>^Mstartxref^M21150^M%%EOF
gnus mangled ending
R^M/Info 1 0 R^M/ID [<5c657a9ab42463350!
3301772053391a4><5c657a9ab424633503301772053391a4>]^M>>^Mstartxref^M21150^M%%EOF
as you can see, the !<lf> got somehow inserted. is this a gnus
configuaration problem i can fix by setting the proper variable? is
this a known gnus sending problem? i am happy to send my config upon
request.
i'll delve into it, if no one already has a quick solution.
