Re: [hylafax-users] FaxMail + PDF Attachments + Email Header

Another HTML update:

In the email received, the second MIME part is:

--Apple-Mail-28--1026872698
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
Content-Type: text/html;
        charset=ISO-8859-1

<html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; =
-webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Does it come through if i add =
<b>bold?</b>=A0or <span class=3D"Apple-style-span" =
style=3D"text-decoration: underline;">underline?</span></body></html>=

--Apple-Mail-28--1026872698--

I managed to capture the temp files faxmail creates, and look inside of the part.2 file to see why it was claiming it didnt know what kind of file it is. When it gets to this stage, part.2 contains:

<html><body style=3D"word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; =
-webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Does it come through if i add =
<b>bold?</b>=A0or <span class=3D"Apple-style-span" =
style=3D"text-decoration: underline;">underline?</span></body></html>=

With no headers.  Is part.2 what gets shipped off to be converted to .ps by a mime converter, and with no header, its not sure what to do?

I have 4.4.3 packages here for etch:

Unfortunately I don't have access to my etch box anymore, so I haven't
had a chance to build 4.4.4 packages for etch.  But you can build
debian packages right from the hylafax-4.4.4 tarball.

The -T will "trim" the text parts (the main body) of the email, so if it's
empty, it's suppressed.

the -N will suppress the "header" part.  So, both the -N and -T together
will cause both the "header" and the "body" parts to be suppressed.

Note that there was a bug in 4.4.0 which caused faxmail to submit an
"empty" document to the server when both the header and text parts had
been suppressed, which will cause you problems if you're still on 4.4.0.
