MIME object problem

[David Sarno <da...@yale.edu>]

Does anyone know of any special bookkeeping steps you need to take before passing a MIME object (in this case, a simple one with nothing but a line of text/plaion)  through a SOAP conduit?  When I pass this MIME entity through to the server as an argument to the call, something on the server side keeps giving me errors when I try to perform operations on it.  What kind of permissions/security issues might I be facing with this? 

The SOAP server response is below.  The error is that I'm not giving a SCALAR reference to something, but I can't figure out what.  If I execute the server script with a MIME object created on the server side, everything works.  But when it's passed through from a client, I get this error.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.  I realize this is a little slim on details.
