Thankyou for the very usefull information, I have managed to track down
the area of the common-functions file which is actually being called which
is this code:-

                TIFF|tiff|TIF|tif)
                    TraceLog "Using tiff2pdf"
                    name="`basename $1 .tif`"
                    $TIFF2PDF -o $TMPDIR/$name.pdf $1
                    echo "$TMPDIR/$name.pdf"

So I changed the code to as follows:-

                TIFF|tiff|TIF|tif)
                    TraceLog "Using tiff2pdf"
                    name="`basename $1 .tif`"

                    psmark -i $1 -o $TMPDIR/$name-marked.ps -x -400 -y 20
-r 0$
                    $TIFF2PDF $TMPDIR/$name-marked.ps -o $TMPDIR/$name.pdf
                    rm -f $TMPDIR/$name-marked.ps

                    #$TIFF2PDF -o $TMPDIR/$name.pdf $1
                    echo "$TMPDIR/$name.pdf"

However now when an email gets sent through to my inbox, it has no
attachment, the user name is uucp and no body text now.

Could you offer me any further guidence.

Thanks

Andy
