Hi, Here http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch33.html , you can read :
If you have the *mimencode* command installed, another way to do produce base64-encoded strings is to run the command echo -e -n `\0user\0password' | mimencode The *-e* option of *echo* enables the interpretation of backslash escapes in the argument, and the *-n* option specifies no newline at the end of its output. However, not all versions of *echo* recognize these options, so you should check your version before relying on this suggestion. Would it be possible to add a small example, so that readers can be certain their version of echo recognize these options ? I was thinking of : echo -e -n '\0abc\0def' | mimencode AGFiYwBkZWY= Best regards -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
