File attachments in list.
Sorry, Off topic.
I have tried sending a couple posts over the last few days with file
attachments. In both cases, the files in the mail that I get back from
the list are munged. But the mail that I get by cc-ing myself is fine.
Anyone have any ideas of what I might be doing wrong? I'm using Netscape 6.2
Thanks,
Leif

yep. I think thats just the way your client handles multi-part mime messages.
Just make sure that whenever you attach a file that it's mime-type is not
text/html or text/x-html - your mail client *should* popup a dialog box or
make it possible to change the attachment type.

Your email looked about like mine. The first file is ok, but I also got
a second attachment called Part 1.3 that contains the unsubscribe message.
Just good to know.
Did you get the new DaemonLauncher and associated files that I sent
yesterday? I had CCed them to your address as well so they would get
through.
Cheers,
Leif

The list filters out all HTML attachments. I have attached a java file to
this mail to see if it gets through. If it does get through then I suspect
your mail client may be setting the mime type incorrectly but if it doesn't
get through then the list may be setup wrong.
Testing, 1 2 3....
