Re: weird exception: 'error in encoded stream'

[Danny Angus <da...@apache.org>]

This looks like a problem with the format of a specific message,
base64 encoding needs it to be padded out to a multiple of some number
or other, forget what.

People on this list might be able to help you if you could trap the
message, but of course it seems that James is failing before that.

Have you got anything in the logs which would tell you where the
message is from? You might find that either a) it is badly constructed
spam or b) you could contact them and ask them what they were trying
to send you.
